You spent years building your management skills. Don't let AI make them obsolete

Download our complete Management OS on Day 1.

Managers catch 18% fewer errors when AI is treated like an employee. Only 36% of employees say their manager supports their team's use of AI. Companies trained everyone except the manager.

Gallup's advice to companies that want AI adoption to grow: start by equipping their managers.

Your team is about to stop being all-human. Your title won't change. What it takes to keep it will.

Companies bought AI tools and trained employees to prompt them. Then they skipped the manager. Now you have two jobs: developing your people and directing AI agents. Same title, same hours, double the work. And nobody trained you for the second one.

"Learn 50 AI tools" won't fix that. Leading a team of people and agents is a management skill, and it's the one that doesn't expire.

This course teaches it. No tool tutorials or prompts. You relearn 6 management principles for a team of people + agents, then apply them in 6 real practice activities.

Tested on real teams: 40+ AI rollouts and 200+ alumni from Microsoft, Amazon, and Chevron.

The agents will reach your team before the training does. Get ahead of it, and become the AI-fluent manager everyone wants to work with.

What you’ll learn

Management didn’t change. Your team did. Learn the AI management system for teams made up of people and AI.

List every recurring task your team handles, with an owner and weekly hours, in one place
Define what "done" looks like for each task before anyone, human or AI, starts it
See the invisible work your org chart hides, so you manage the work itself, not job titles

Decide which tasks stay with a person, which go to AI, and which need both
Split shared tasks so a person sets them up, AI does the bulk, and a person checks and finishes them
Know which work should never leave human hands, no matter how good AI gets

Write one clear set of instructions that works for a person or AI
Stop rewriting AI output by fixing your instructions instead
Put one person's name on every AI task, so no result is ever left unowned

Build trust in AI work step by step, from full review to spot-checks to final sign-off, the way you would with a new hire
Catch confident but wrong AI output before it reaches your boss or your customer
Match how closely you check a task to its stakes, not to how nervous AI makes you

Fix the cause of a failure so the same problem can't happen twice
Rework your standups, weekly reviews, and 1:1s for a team that includes AI
Tell a brief problem from an ownership problem from a trust problem, and give each the right fix

Build a 90-day plan to take this from your own desk to your whole team
Keep your best people on board by moving them toward the work AI can't do: judgment, relationships, and finishing
Show your team's results in numbers leadership believes, so the change earns its place

Justin doesn't teach from a textbook; he teaches from 20 years of actually delivering projects. The real-world experience behind every lesson meant I could take what he shared and put it to work on my team immediately.

What I learned on Monday, I put into action on Tuesday. Justin communicates so clearly that every recommendation was immediately usable, no translation needed. And whenever I had questions, he was accessible and responsive. That kind of support made all the difference.
