AI for Managers & Team Leads
Your team is already using AI — with or without you. Set the ground rules, review AI-assisted work fairly, delegate across people and machines, and grow the skills without a training budget.
Your first win: Write your team one-page AI ground rules and review one piece of AI-assisted work with a fair standard.
Every lesson below has a free preview. Pro unlocks the full lessons with live AI practice, quizzes, the coach, and spaced reviews.
1. The manager's real AI job
Your job is standards and judgment for the team, not being its best prompter
2. Delegate to AI, to people, or to neither
Triage tasks by stakes and verifiability — not by what is technically possible
3. Reviewing AI-assisted work fairly
Review the substance and the inputs, not whether AI touched it
4. One page of team AI ground rules
Four sections — tools, never-paste, verification, disclosure — beat any forty-page policy
5. Run the team rhythm on decisions, not memory
AI recaps and action tracking give the team one honest record — if the manager curates it
6. Manager writing: feedback, updates, and the privacy trap
AI drafts your recurring communications — but people-content needs stripped inputs and human warmth
7. Data questions without the analyst queue
AI answers table questions in minutes — decisions still wait for one verified number
8. Judging AI tools and vendor claims
Four questions cut through any AI pitch: data, problem, proof, and exit
9. Upskill the team without a budget
Fifteen minutes a week of show-your-trick beats the training course nobody gets
10. What stays human on your watch
Accountability, sensitive conversations, and final judgment do not delegate — deciding that out loud is leadership
