🧠 ONE Smart Idea

AI delegation works best when the decision behind the work is already formed.

Many founders treat AI like a shortcut. They toss an unshaped prompt into a window and hope the model will fill in the missing clarity. But AI doesn’t create clarity; it amplifies the clarity you bring. When the decision is complete, AI becomes a remarkable executor. When the decision is ambiguous, the output becomes generic.

Delegating to AI is an extension of internal leadership. The same ingredients that make team delegation effective—context, structure, direction—create better AI results. When you bring a finished decision and a clear intention, the machine gives you leverage instead of noise.

This is how founders scale their thinking without losing their intent.

📖 Story Spark

A founder once showed me a prompt he used daily for content creation. It was long, detailed, and full of instructions. Yet the output always felt slightly misaligned. He told me, “I keep adding more words, but it still doesn’t sound right.”

I asked him one question:
“What’s the decision you want the model to honor?”

He paused. Then admitted he hadn’t articulated it.

We spent two minutes shaping the decision:

• Who the writing was for

• What the message needed to achieve

• What the non-negotiables were

Once the decision was complete, the prompt became simple.
The output immediately improved.
The alignment returned.

The prompt wasn’t the problem.
The unfinished decision was.

⚙️ Tactical Application: The Delegation Framework

Before you delegate anything to AI, pass it through this structure.

1. Context

State the intention behind the task.
Provide the “why,” not just the “what.”

Examples:

• The audience you’re speaking to

• The problem you’re solving

• The outcome you want to create

Context gives AI direction.

2. Constraints

Boundaries shape clarity.
Constraints tell AI how to think within the decision.

Use constraints like:

• Voice, tone, or style

• Length or format

• Level of detail

• Required structure

Constraints prevent drift.

3. Criteria

Criteria define success.
They help AI measure the output against your intention.

Specify:

• What “good” looks like

• What must be included

• What must not be included

• The purpose the output should serve

Criteria sharpen execution.

With Context → Constraints → Criteria in place, delegation becomes consistent, predictable, and aligned with your intent.
