AI tools for CEOs
A CEO may read a board pack, make a decision and assign follow-up in the same morning. Create a source-linked brief and a clear action record so uncertainty does not disappear in the summary.

Before using AI at work
Can I upload a board pack?
Check the approved environment and access rules for confidential financial and personnel material first.
What should an executive summary leave in?
Keep the decision needed, evidence, limits and material risks visible even when the brief is short.
Can AI choose a strategy?
Use it to frame options; leadership remains responsible for the decision and its consequences.
How do I avoid invented action owners?
Leave assignments proposed until the named leaders agree to them.
