AI is a team sport

AI Alignment Map

In short

Don't hand it over to a project manager alone. The team shares responsibility for running its AI initiative. Our AI Alignment Map keeps Business, Technology, Organization, User, and Ethics in constant alignment.

The AI Alignment Map

Lanes

All of these lanes need to be in constant alignment.

Business

Includes: executive sponsorship. Business asks, do we have a business case?

Technology

Includes: data. Technology always ask, can we build it?

Organization

Includes: Compliance. The organization asks, can the organization adapt processes and people?

User

The user asks, what should the AI do for us? Can we adapt, are we ready?

Ethics

Ethics asks, is anyone getting hurt or receives harm from the AI use?

Phases

  1. Frame (establish the problem, the use case, the expected value, the sponsor).

  2. Plan (decide the approach: data strategy, feasibility, who needs to be involved, scope and timelines).

  3. Prepare (get ready to build: environments and pipeline, backlog, solution design, the people and processes that will be affected).

  4. Build (design, train, and develop the actual solution; refine against users).

  5. Prove & govern (validate it, get compliance and risk approvals, prepare the org and users to run it).

  6. Launch (go live in production).

  7. Realize & sustain (confirm the value lands, extend to more use cases, keep it running and engineered).

Along every phase, each lane runs its standing check.

Material you’re getting

Our cards

Each lane carries one question the whole way — but every phase adds its own. The card for each phase tells a lane exactly what to check and align on there. The cards come in digital and physical form.

Our AI Alignment Map

The team moves with their AI initiative through the phases in the AI Alignment Map. The team sees where their AI initiative is, what to do, and what is ahead. It comes in digital and physical form.

Material you can start with right away

When you sign up, we'll send you the physical cards in the post. You don't have to wait for them, though — the course is fully self-paced and comes with digital material, so you can start the moment you join. When your cards arrive, you'll have something you can bring to the table with your colleagues.

Be first in line

The AI Alignment Map Course is launching soon. Join the waitlist to get early access and be the first to know when it's live.

No spam. Just one email when the course opens.
