Find your AI opportunities

Problem Top-down leadership directives are often guesswork that creates motion, but not results.

Solution AI priorities should be agnostically assessed by speed, cost, bandwidth, and impact, and those closest to the work know where the opportunities are.

What I look at

  • Needs Assessment
  • Persona & Use Case Development
  • Feasibility Assessment
  • Automation vs. AI
  • Process Journey & Sequencing
  • Handoff, Queue, & Bottleneck Identification
  • Cost & Benefit Analysis
  • Prioritization Matrices (Ranking by Speed, Cost, Bandwidth, & Impact)
  • Strategy & Roadmap Development
  • Solution Design
