STEP 1 · ACCELERATE
Mindset + Method = Money + Momentum

From "AI ideas" to a working workflow.
In 8 hours.

ACCELERATE turns executive intent into a deployable, AI-enabled workflow inside your Microsoft 365 environment. No theatre. No slides. You leave with something that runs, a roadmap for what is next, and the evidence to justify scaling.

Who It's For

You've built AI fluency. Now prove ROI.

ACCELERATE is for teams who've completed PERSONAL or TEAM and are asking: "Where do we start, and how do we prove value fast?" Built for function leaders and domain practitioners, not engineers. No theatre. No slides. You leave with something that runs.

A scoped operational bottleneck

Not a vague ambition. A right-sized problem selected and scored for business value, feasibility, and speed to progress.

A working "thin slice" automation

Built inside your Microsoft 365 stack. SharePoint, Power Automate, Copilot. No external tools. No data leaves your organisation.

A before/after demo

Something leadership can see and believe. Demo video, walkthrough documentation, and a clear "how it works" summary.

A scaling roadmap + business case

Product backlog, team charter, governance requirements, and the evidence your finance team needs to approve broader rollout.

2 × 4 hours. Two sessions. One deployable workflow.

Session 1 decides what matters. Session 2 builds it. A 1–2 week gap between sessions lets your team validate assumptions with real evidence before building.

SESSION 1 (4 HOURS)

Decide what matters. Define "done".

Choose the right problem and set success criteria before building anything.

Problem harvesting: human + AI-derived patterns from transcripts, chat, documents
Scorecard triage: rank by business value, speed, scope, feasibility, stakeholder fit
Problem profile: crisp statement, stakeholders, evidence, definition of "done"
Assumptions + killer risks: rate confidence, flag what must be tested before Session 2
Draft MVP spec: the "thin slice" you can build within your environment constraints
SESSION 2 (4 HOURS)

Build the thin slice. Map the scale.

Build something that works today, then define how it becomes an operating capability.

Reality check: what did we learn between sessions? Did any killer assumptions die?
Design the workflow: triggers, inputs, outputs, human approvals, quality gates
Build the thin slice: hands-on in M365 (SharePoint + Power Automate + Copilot)
Test end-to-end: run it, break it, fix it, document exceptions
Roadmap + governance: backlog, risks, ownership, and the business case for scaling
BETWEEN SESSIONS (1–2 WEEKS)

Your team validates top assumptions through real conversations, workflow observation, and data checks. Findings are summarised with AI. Constraints confirmed. The problem profile is updated with fresh evidence so Session 2 builds on truth, not guesswork.

No Value, No Fee

If ACCELERATE does not create measurable business value, you do not pay. That is the guarantee.

Simple by design. Built with what you already own.

No additional tools required. ACCELERATE runs inside your existing Microsoft 365 environment.

PERSONAL or TEAM completed

AI fluency and shared language in place. Without mindset and method, implementation sprints become expensive discovery sessions.

Microsoft 365 (Business or Enterprise)

Access to SharePoint, Power Automate, and the ability to create lists/folders. Copilot or Copilot Studio where available (not mandatory for V1).

A known operational bottleneck

A process that is manual, time-consuming, and ready for redesign. If you do not have one, Session 1 will identify it.

4–6 people who own the problem

Function leaders and domain practitioners. The group that owns the problem should own the solution. Cross-functional or single-team.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

ACCELERATE creates proof. EMBED industrialises it.

If you want this to become a repeatable capability, EMBED turns your sprint output into a repeatable operating rhythm: hardened workflows, reusable agents, measurement, adoption, and continuous improvement.

AI Fluency Model

Where ACCELERATE Sits

ACCELERATE is the hinge point in your AI fluency journey. You move from Integration (L2) to Redesign (L3). The moment AI stops being a tool you use and starts being a method that changes how your team works.

L0
Unaware
No AI literacy. Fear & uncertainty.
L1
Literacy
Basic awareness. Occasional use.
L2
Integration
Daily AI habits. ≈20% time-capital.
L3
Redesign
Workflow shifts. Insourcing gains.
L4
Transformation
AI-native model. Agents & people.

ACCELERATE targets L2 → L3. Prerequisites: PERSONAL (L0→L1) and TEAM (L1→L2) completed.

Non-Negotiable

CEO must complete a PERSONAL session. STRATEGIC must align your leadership on direction and resources. ENTERPRISE must align CxO decision rights. Without these three, success probability drops below 20%. These aren't boxes to tick—they're the foundation for compound momentum.
