Guiding your team through AI change

There's no shortage of alarming headlines about what AI means for teams.  But adopting AI doesn't always mean a reduction in headcount. For many organisations it means evolving roles, new skill sets, and sometimes growth, particularly in IT and leadership.

Here are a few ways we’re supporting businesses and teams through the change.
‍

Updating position descriptions

As roles evolve with AI, PDs need to keep up. They might need a refresh to reflect the work people are actually doing and the skills they now need to work with agents and automations.
‍

Reviewing your team structure

As AI takes on more routine tasks, you may find capacity in unexpected places, or identify gaps that need filling in others. Make sure your team is right-sized and aligned to where the business is heading.
‍

Getting clear on how AI is used

We’ve touched on this before but when things are evolving fast it’s important to set clear expectations for how AI is used in your business; from data privacy to approved tools/usage. Whether AI usage is incorporated into an existing policy or created as a standalone AI workplace policy.  
‍

Hire for the new shape

At this stage, many teams are looking for stronger IT capability and leaders who can guide the shift. Whether that means recruiting for new roles or bringing in someone with the expertise needed on a short-term or fractional basis, we can help you find the right option.

Keeping culture intact

Helping everyone stay clear on how to use AI, while keeping team culture intact, is just as important as the structural changes. Team workshops can help people feel connected during times of change.
