1 BIG IDEA
AI is a powerful tool—but it should never replace your leadership. When you root your use of tools like ChatGPT in your Core Values, you amplify your clarity without compromising your voice.

5 WAYS TO APPLY THIS

  • Approach AI like a strategic partner, not a shortcut
  • Use values-based prompts to clarify decisions, not make them for you
  • Draft communications that sound like you, then refine with discernment
  • Upload foundational identity tools (DISC profile, Core Values Blueprint, etc.) to help the tool understand your leadership lens
  • Remember: You are the one responsible for what you publish, decide, or communicate—not the tool

3 QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF

  • What’s my current relationship to AI—curious, resistant, reactive?
  • Where could a tool like ChatGPT save me time without sacrificing thoughtfulness?
  • What Core Values do I want reflected in every decision or message I share?
