When we run our IDS® sessions, our team occasionally hits a wall where we lack the technical expertise to solve a complex operational issue. How can we use artificial intelligence as an active partner in our Level 10 Meeting™ to break through these bottlenecks without slowing down the meeting?

Using artificial intelligence during your weekly IDS® sessions can accelerate your problem-solving, but only if you treat it as an objective research assistant rather than a decision-maker. When your team hits an operational or technical bottleneck, you can utilize generative AI to rapidly brainstorm potential solutions and identify blind spots. To do this effectively without disrupting the flow of your Level 10 Meeting™, follow a simple framework. Assign one team member to act as the AI driver. This person should interact with the AI assistant conversationally, treating it like texting with a knowledgeable colleague. They can quickly copy and paste system logs, process descriptions, or market data directly into the tool to get immediate feedback. The driver then relays the top three options back to the leadership team. This allows you to bypass lengthy technical debates and move straight to evaluating solutions. However, the leadership team must maintain full human ownership of the final decision. AI can provide the data and the options, but your team must apply the GWC™ filter to ensure the chosen path fits your core values and long-term vision. This keeps your sessions fast, objective, and highly productive.
