From Glue to Workflow

Choose an AI idea, plan a 90-day test, and specify the workflow.

“Everyone has AI ideas. Few can show which one is worth doing.”

AI automation: choose the workflow, then test it for 90 days

What you’ll be able to do by the end:

  1. 1Check an idea against the four tests of a promising first opportunity.
  2. 2Design a 90-day test with a baseline, cost per finished task, evidence and a stop rule.
  3. 3Judge which of three pilot results to scale, change or stop, and say why.
  4. 4Name what a workflow needs in place first (permission, data access, governance and an owner), and which are missing.
  5. 5Produce a workflow plan that meets the five-criterion rubric.

The moment it clicks

“I can specify it, test it in 90 days, and ask for it.”

The rule you’ll keep

Specify it, test it, then build it.

General training, not advice. Follow your organisation’s policies, and get specialist advice before connecting AI to live systems or letting it act for you. What the course is, and isn’t.
