Get Your Team Moving on AI - Fast
Most teams don’t resist AI because they don’t see its potential—they get stuck because they don’t know where to start. Uncertainty, skepticism, and inertia keep AI adoption at a standstill, leaving marketing teams behind while competitors gain an edge.
The good news? Small actions remove friction and build momentum. AI adoption isn’t about flipping a switch — it’s about making it easy, accessible, and part of everyday work. Host an AI lunch-and-learn. Ask about AI in your 1:1s. Create space for experimentation.

Transform Your Team Into a Human AI Powerhouse
Picture a marketing team where humans and AI work side by side - not as replacements, but as partners with clear roles and responsibilities.
That's exactly what one forward-thinking CMO achieved, transforming a lean marketing team where humans guide and work alongside their AI teammates.
With AI and Exec advisor Liza Adams’ guidance, the team increased their lead accuracy, halved their content creation time and improved campaign performance by 35%.
Here’s how they did it:
Start with Understanding: Openly address concerns about AI and emphasize growth and learning. By reassuring the team that AI will enhance their roles rather than replace them, you build trust and set the stage for a balanced human-AI team structure.
Show What's Possible: Host workshops showcasing AI use cases tailored to specific roles. This approach helps team members see clear benefits in their daily work.
Create Space for Learning: Encourage exploration of AI tools; experimentation leads to new solutions.
Scale Systems: Track and refine AI implementations, then expand successful approaches across the organization.
As Adams says, “As they develop and use more AI teammates, they’re proving what’s possible with the right approach.”

Your AI Strategy Needs a Manifesto
2025 is the year to get real ROI from AI. But if your team is going to see meaningful results, they need two things: clarity on AI expectations and the confidence to take smart risks.
One approach that’s working: Section’s AI Manifesto—a simple but powerful way to define how AI fits into your work. They’ve even created a fillable PDF template so you can build your own.
🔹 What it’s not: A legal document full of data usage policies
🔹 What it is: A clear, shared philosophy on AI’s role in your company
If your team is navigating AI adoption, this could be a game-changer. Check it out and start shaping your AI strategy today.
