Working with AI: Delegating, Reviewing and Staying Accountable
Half-day workshop on delegating to AI without surrendering judgement or ownership
Overview
A half-day, trainer-led workshop for managers and professionals who now hand real work to AI tools. It treats AI as a delegation problem rather than a software problem: deciding what to hand over, briefing it properly, reviewing output with proportionate rigour, and keeping accountability where it belongs. The pack includes scripted speaker notes, timed activities, a workbook, five handouts and two case studies — one international, one GCC-set.
Format. Half day. Designed for classroom delivery and adaptable to live online sessions.
Who it is for. Managers, team leaders and senior professionals who delegate real deliverables to AI tools, and the trainers, consultancies and corporate L&D teams who teach them. Open level and tool-agnostic; no technical knowledge is required, and nothing in the course depends on any particular product.
What delegates take away
- Decide which tasks to hand to an AI assistant — and which to keep — using stakes and checkability.
- Write delegation-grade briefs using the five-part BRIEF structure: Background, Result, Inputs, Edges, Format.
- Review AI output in three passes, at a review depth set before reading.
- Recognise automation bias and fluency effects, and design review habits that assume drift.
- Keep accountability where it belongs: own outcomes, disclose AI use, and respond to errors by fixing workflows rather than blaming the last pair of eyes.
- Set five checkable personal working rules and, for managers, one team norm for AI-assisted work.
Course outline
Frames AI as a delegation problem rather than a software problem: what changes when work goes to a machine, what never transfers, and why AI capability is jagged rather than general.
Two questions — stakes and checkability — drive the Delegation Grid. Participants map eight of their own recurring tasks onto it and identify the work that stays human on principle.
Why thin briefs produce confident rubbish, and the five-part BRIEF structure — Background, Result, Inputs, Edges, Format — practised by rewriting a weak brief and swap-testing it with a neighbour.
Automation bias and fluency effects, then the method: three review passes at a depth set before reading. The flagship exercise seeds six flaws in a realistic AI output for trios to find.
Where accountability sits when machines do the work, the moral crumple zone, disclosure norms inside and outside the organisation, and a group case study — international or GCC version by audience.
Participants convert the session into five checkable personal rules — and, for managers, one team norm to propose — with a thirty-day follow-up check built into the workbook.
