Exploration of emerging AI work patterns and their impact on work systems design, emphasizing experimentation and evidence-based insights.
AI is changing how we design and use work systems. How exactly? We're still figuring that out. Everyone is.
Some smart consultants are already building maturity frameworks and governance models on top of this. We get it - the urge to structure is strong. But we don't think we're there yet. Right now, we learn more by keeping the space open: experimenting with what's possible, running into limitations, and looking at real examples to understand what's actually happening.
Some of the patterns here are already established among pioneers. Some are speculative. Some might turn out to be dead ends. 12 emerging patterns, mapped to Flight Levels: from how daily work actually changes (FL1), through coordination challenges (FL2), up to strategic choices (FL3).
Playful, evidence-based where evidence exists, honest about what's still speculation. A 2025/2026 experiment in the open.
