What You'll Learn

Stop waiting for better AI. Start building better processes.

Read the Full Book

Define Tasks Clearly

Transform vague instructions like "review this contract" into clear, delegable specifications that anyone, human or AI, can execute reliably.

Document Processes

Capture knowledge that lives in people's heads. Build processes that survive staff turnover and scale with your team.

Build Feedback Loops

Stop operating blind. Create structured feedback mechanisms to know whether your work is actually useful.

Standardise Language

Eliminate linguistic drift. Make contracts easier to review, precedents more useful, and automation possible.

Separate Judgement from Hygiene

Free expertise from compensating for poor process. Reserve judgement for work that genuinely requires it.

Assess AI Readiness

Use the 18-point checklist to determine if a task is ready for AI, or what needs fixing first.
