Turning AI Use-Case Lists into a Winning Strategy

The problem this solves

AI use-case lists that never become a strategy
Charlene Li helps organizations convert sprawling lists of AI possibilities into a coherent strategy tied to real business problems. The work spans mapping where AI creates value, prioritizing use cases against strategic problems, assessing capability readiness, and building a flexible rolling roadmap with proportionate governance.
Technique

An 18-month rolling plan, re-baselined each quarter, not annually

“the six-quarter walk—an 18-month rolling plan that creates a strategic buffer for unexpected developments... Assess progress across workstreams, Adjust the remaining five quarters, Add another quarter at the end”

— Stop Collecting AI Use Cases (+ Do This Instead)

Novel practice

Filter use cases through strategic problems, not the reverse

“filter your use cases through one lens: What are the biggest strategic problems you need to solve?”
