Managers are on the front lines of AI adoption, but most have never been trained for the conversations they'll have. This guide gives them frameworks for the four most common 1:1 situations so the conversation lands the right way.
What's inside
Four conversation scenarios (Worried Employee, Quality Skeptic, Overwhelmed Employee, Enthusiastic Early Adopter) each with conversation structure, suggested language, common mistakes, and follow-up actions.
How to use it
- Skim the table of contents first. Guides reward jumping to the section that matches your current question.
- Apply one section per week. Trying to operationalize a guide in a sprint usually buries the insight.
- Note where the guide's advice doesn't match your context. That's your edge.
