Everyone has AI now. But the work hasn't changed. 

 

We give your managers the playbook to change it.

  

 

 

The manager role has evolved

With AI on your team, managers have new responsibilities: 

 

  • Oversee AI projects and systems
  • Review work done by people and AI
  • Set expectations for how AI is used day to day
  • Hire talent with AI skills
  • Develop AI skills on your team

"Managers are expected to validate AI outputs, identify errors, coach their teams in AI skills and core on-the-job principles, and uphold quality standards—all while facing increased delivery pressure and lacking formal support structures."

What redesigning work actually takes  

Since 2024, the Managing AI Lab has taught managers how to redesign their work: 

  • Identify where AI fits in their team's work
  • How to lead and collaborate on AI projects
  • Guide teams through changes to roles, skills, and workflows
  • Set clear standards for responsible, high-quality AI use
  • Build the AI capabilities teams need next 

"95% of HR leaders say middle managers are the most crucial factor in ensuring employees use AI effectively and 92% say they are crucial to redefining job roles as AI reshapes day-to-day work."

YOUR AI AMBASSADOR

I'm Nicolle Merrill

I'm the CEO of Boring AI, an AI fluency company that's trained 45,000+ professionals across 13 countries on how to work with AI. Before launching Boring AI, I spent 7 years building human-centered AI products for HR, fintech, and engineering teams.

Throughout my work training non-technical teams for AI, I've noticed a pattern: managers lack specific support to redesign work and lead AI-enabled teams.

Managing AI Lab exists to fix that gap. We show managers how to integrate AI into their teams and adapt in an AI-filled workplace.
