Lesson 5 of 5 in For team leads: roll out AI
Share wins across the team
One person's "I saved an hour" is another person's "I should try that." Publicizing small wins is the best marketing for adoption.
Do this
Ask your team for one AI win this week. Use the AI to turn it into a short, shareable story.
Try it now
Copy this prompt and describe a real win from your team:
>Turn this into a short "win of the week" story for my team Slack channel. Name the person, what they used AI for, how much time it saved, and the exact prompt they used. Tone: proud but not corny. Under 100 words. Make other people want to try it.
[PERSON] used AI to [TASK]. It saved them [TIME]. The prompt was: [PROMPT].
Check yourself
Does the story name a real person? Does it share the exact prompt so others can copy it? Would this make a skeptical teammate curious?
What just happened
Social proof beats mandates. When Priya from accounting shares that she summarized a 20-page report in 2 minutes using one prompt, everyone in accounting wants to know the prompt. The skill is documenting and sharing — turning individual wins into team capability.
