1. Draw the workflow as it is
Lesson · 40 minutes
A workflow is the path a piece of work takes from request to done. Write the steps you actually follow, including the waiting and the rework. Do not draw the process you wish you had.

AI-Powered Productivity: Unlocking Artificial Intelligence for complete workflows
Fit artificial intelligence into a whole workflow: intake, draft, review, and handoff, without losing the steps a person must still own.
Who it is for. Teams who want AI inside a repeating process, not as a one-off prompt.
What you will be able to do
- Map a workflow before you add a tool.
- Put AI on the steps that are drafts, and keep people on the steps that are decisions.
- Hand work on with a record of what was checked.
Lessons
2. Put the tool on one step
Lesson · 45 minutes
Change one step, not the whole path. Give the tool the same input a colleague would get, and ask for the same output the next step already expects.
3. Review stays in the path
Lesson · 40 minutes
A workflow without a review step will ship mistakes faster. Put the review where the cost of a mistake is still cheap: before the customer, the ledger, or the public page.
4. Handoff and exceptions
Lesson · 35 minutes
Write down what the tool must not do: send, pay, delete, or change a record of authority. Those actions stay manual.
5. Measure one week
Lesson · 30 minutes
For one week, count items completed, items sent back, and time spent checking. Compare that with the week before the tool was added.
6. Check your understanding
