AI / Me / We

AI-HUMAN ROLESENABLE

Purpose Draw one clear map that defines role boundaries: AI, Human, Shared.
Intervention type Role-clarity workshop
Audience Leaders and managers who set AI goals, run roll-outs, and own adoption KPIs
Time 75 min live session · 2 min “drift” check every sprint retro

Expected outcomes

  • Users: Is clear on “AI does ___, I do ___”.

  • Teams: A3 (or Miro) Role Canvas posted; one shared KPI pinned on top; drift ritual on calendar.

  • Business: Fewer hand-off errors, faster cycle times on mapped tasks (target: ≥10 % within 4 weeks).

  • Organisation: Anxiety about “AI stealing jobs” and loss of instigation knowledge falls.

What to bring to the session
  • AI / Me / We Canvas. (Build below)

  • Task Deck. 30 common workflow cards (below)

  • Scenario Cards. (below)

Steps

1 | Setup

Step 1: Prep your board
Use a whiteboard, wall, or table. Lay out your AI / Me / We Canvas with three columns:

  • AI = work the tool can do independently

  • Me = tasks that need human judgment or oversight

  • We = shared ownership (e.g., AI draft, human edit)


Draw or print the canvas with the KPI bar at the top. Make sure you have enough space for 10–15 task stickies.

Step 2: Get your cards ready

  • Shuffle the Task Deck and lay the cards in the centre.

  • Choose 1–2 Scenario Cards in advance — pick ones that match current stressors (e.g. “volume spike”, “policy change”, “tech outage”).

  • Have the KPI Cheat-Sheet printed or open on screen for quick reference.

2 | Draft the Tasks

Step 3: Build your list
Each person picks up to 12 tasks using the Task Deck or their real workflow.
Stick these beside the canvas.

3 | Sort the Work

Step 4: Drop each task into AI / Me / We

  • AI → “Can the tool run this unsupervised?”

  • Me → “If AI fails here, who owns the risk?”

  • We → “Do we need both for speed, quality, or judgment?”

Discuss. Debate. Decide.

Tip: Add notes as to how and why for later.

4 | Stress-Test the Boundary

Step 5: Add pressure, see what moves
Pick one Scenario Card and ask aloud:

  • What breaks first?

  • What shifts to humans under pressure?

  • What needs stronger guard-rails?

Tip: Document your conversations for the next task.

Step 6: Add mitigation ideas to critical tasks
Look at tasks that raised concerns or shifted under pressure.
Ask:

  • What could go wrong here, and why?

  • What would reduce that risk? (Process, prompt, alert, policy…)

  • Who should own that mitigation? AI, human, or both?

Write the mitigation beside the sticky using a small post-it or note box.
Label the owner (AI, Me, We).

Example:
Task = “Initial draft of policy update”
Concern = “Regulatory risk if misunderstood”
Mitigation = “Human legal check before send → Me”

5 | Lock the Shared KPI

Step 7: Choose one metric that proves this setup works
Use the KPI Cheat-Sheet to find a task-relevant metric (e.g., “Turnaround time < 24h while maintaining Quality ≥ 8/10”).
