AI can make a leadership team running on EOS® faster. It drafts, sorts and summarizes in minutes. It cannot decide what matters, commit for your leadership team, or hold anyone accountable. Use AI to prepare the work. Keep the decisions, the commitments and the follow-through with your people.
I love what AI does for my business and for the teams I work with. It takes hours of drafting off our plates, so meeting time goes to decisions instead of blank pages.
Three places we can use AI well in EOS:
- Leading indicators. AI can turn a list of results into draft weekly measurables for your Scorecard. Your team decides which numbers truly predict the result, and who owns each one.
- Clear accountabilities. AI can draft roles and the standards behind each seat from what people actually do today. Your leadership team confirms them and makes them real on the Accountability Chart.
- Identifying core processes. AI can sort a raw list of everything your company does into likely groups. Your team agrees on its handful. Most companies have five to twelve (Lisa Gonzalez, Process!, p. 57).
All of these require you to review and hone. AI can and does make mistakes! AI can’t see your blind spots.
What AI can’t do in EOS
- Have the hard conversation when a seat or a number is off.
- Get a process Followed By All. That still takes training, measuring and managing, by people.
