Which decisions should managers retain when using AI?

An agent can check a leave request against policy and records. If two requests qualify but approving both would leave a critical service unstaffed, the manager needs to decide how to maintain cover when policy cannot settle the choice.

My talks and working sessions examine decisions like this alongside AI business value, functional workflows and management education.

AI strategy and managerial judgement

AI business value and ROI

How to choose a workflow and assess the complete result after introducing AI, including implementation, review and rework. The discussion distinguishes faster task completion from a financial return the organisation can realise.

Managerial judgement with AI

Which choices can follow agreed guidance, and which require human judgement because guidance cannot settle the choice and the consequences are serious. Participants examine how AI can assist the decision while the manager remains accountable.

Human-agent teams and organisation design

How to allocate routine execution, consequential decisions, accountability and system maintenance. The discussion examines the human work that remains before proposing changes to staffing or reporting lines.

AI for HR and functional teams

How AI can be applied to a function’s workflows and decision preparation, with attention to the sources, criteria and unresolved choices managers need to review.

AI in management education

Using AI for learning practice, faculty-built teaching material and assessment that records student judgement. Students commit to a decision, examine evidence and revise their reasoning.

Session formats

For teams with a business problem or workflow to examine. Participants work on role-specific examples, compare their judgement with AI output and decide how execution, review and accountability should be allocated.
