01 in practice

What working with us tends to look like.

Not case studies. Just honest descriptions of the situations we work in, and what we usually find when we get there.

Individual, upskilling

You're senior, experienced, and feel behind for the first time in your career.

Most people who come to us for this have spent years being the expert in the room. Then AI shows up and suddenly they feel like a beginner. Not about AI in general. About themselves.

Nine times out of ten, the experience is not the problem. The problem is they are treating these tools like a student would. Your years of judgment are exactly what the AI needs you to bring. Once people see that, things shift quickly.

We usually spend the first session helping someone trust what they already know. That is almost always enough to get things moving.

School leadership, education

You want an AI policy but nobody wants to write it alone.

Most schools have been sitting on this longer than they will admit. Something AI-generated gets flagged. People say they need a policy. Then months go by and nothing happens, because nobody wants to be the one who writes the wrong thing.

We do not write the policy for them. We run a session where the staff write it together. It is messier than what we would produce. But it is the only version that actually gets used.

In almost every school session, someone admits something they have been doing quietly for months. That moment is when the real work starts. You need it to happen before anything else will stick.

Leadership team, business strategy

Everyone agrees AI matters. Nobody agrees on what to do. The stalemate is costing you.

These teams are not missing information. They have read everything. The problem is nobody has said out loud what they are actually unsure about. So the conversation goes in circles, and in the meantime people are just doing their own thing.

We sit with them until they have a real decision, not a plan to think about it further. That sounds simple. It is harder than it sounds.

It is never about knowledge. It is always about a conversation that keeps getting postponed.

Law firm, legal & corporate

Your clients are using AI before you are. You need a position you can hold, not just a policy to point to.

Legal professionals are not slow. They are careful. A tool that gets things wrong is not just annoying in law. It can end a case or a career. So the natural response is to wait. While they wait, someone in the firm is already using AI on their own, outside any framework.

We start with questions, not tools. What is the firm willing to stand behind? What does disclosure look like? What counts as good enough review? Those questions have to come first. Most firms skip straight to the training.

The legal world did not change for centuries. AI changed it in months. The firms in trouble are not the careful ones. They are the ones who moved without first agreeing on what they stand for.

Parents, education

Your parent community is anxious. Nobody is helping the parents first.

Schools think about students first. Then teachers. Parents are usually an afterthought. They pick things up from the news, from what their kids say at dinner, from a parents evening that raised more questions than it answered. Nobody is actually helping them.

When we work with parent groups, we are not really talking about AI. We are talking about how to raise a child who can still think for themselves. We give them something useful to hold onto, not more things to worry about.

I started this because of my own son. I know exactly what that worry feels like before you have the words for it.

Does any of this sound like your situation?
