What to work through
1. List repeated work
Inventory tasks across sales, support, operations, marketing, finance, recruiting, and delivery that happen every week.
2. Score fit
Give higher scores to tasks with consistent inputs, clear outputs, available data, enough volume, and a human review path.
3. Score risk
Lower the priority for workflows involving legal judgment, medical advice, financial commitments, sensitive data, or irreversible customer actions.
4. Estimate payoff
Combine time saved, response speed, consistency, error reduction, and revenue impact. Include review time in the estimate.
5. Pick one pilot
Choose one workflow, define success metrics, and build a reviewed version before expanding to other teams.
Mistakes to avoid
- Choosing a rare task because it looks impressive.
- Ignoring the quality of source data.
- Starting with the highest-risk customer workflow.
- Prioritizing ideas without owner buy-in.
