AI is leverage, not layoffs
The real promise of AI isn't replacing your team — it's removing the overhead that holds them back.
The loudest conversation about AI is the wrong one. It’s not about replacing people. It’s about removing the knowledge-work overhead that keeps good people from doing their best work.
Start with the bottleneck
You don’t need an “AI strategy.” You need to find the one repetitive, high-friction task that eats your team’s time — and put a tool on it. That’s a small, concrete project, not a moonshot.
Expand what your people can do
Done well, AI lets your current team take on more without new headcount. The goal is leverage: the same people, freed up for the work only they can do.
