How to Eat the AI Elephant

Book 2 of 5 in The AI Business Playbook Series.

You do not have an AI problem. You have a workflow problem. Most AI programs die trying to swallow the whole elephant at once. This book shows you how to pick one painful workflow, stand up a small accountable pod, run a 90-day PDCA cycle, and make a real decision at the end. Scale it, fix it, or kill it. No buzzword circus.

Includes the AI Business Field Kit, 12 working tools you can print, fill, and run this week, delivered as a fillable PDF workbook plus editable Excel and Word files. The book gives you the method. The kit is how you run it.

Inside:

• The Pod Acceleration Framework. Stand up a small, accountable team that actually ships.
• PDCA discipline. Plan, Do, Check, Act. Short cycles, real evidence, a decision at every gate.
• Current and target state mapping. See where work enters, slows, and breaks before you automate it.
• The Human Oversight Decision Ladder. Decide how much control AI actually gets.
• Two field cases that show the method working, plus a Monday action for every chapter.

The 12-tool Field Kit: AI Use Case Intake, Pod Acceleration Planner, 30-60-90 Roadmap, Current State Workflow Map, Target State Canvas, Automation Complexity Matrix, Human Oversight Decision Ladder, Pod Check Scorecard, Scale Decision Board, AI Governance Checklist, AI Decision Log, and Customer Touch Point Audit.
