Be the sense-maker
Turn the AI headlines into a clear story about your team.
Your team is talking about AI whether you are or not. If you stay quiet, outside voices shape the story. You don't need to be the expert. You need to try the tools yourself, lead frank conversations, and communicate often and honestly.
Put it to work
- Use one AI tool yourself on a real, non-sensitive task this week.
- Hold one open conversation about what your team is hearing.
- Set a regular rhythm for short AI updates.
