Introduction Artificial intelligence amplifies human capabilities by providing speed, scale, and access to vast knowledge. AI synthesises data, highlights patterns, and proposes options.

That's exactly what I inherited when I was assigned to lead the "Phoenix Project" (name a bit ironic at the time). Facing the Flames: Initial Assessment My first order of business was a thorough examination of the project landscape. I pored over documentation, interviewed stakeholders, and conducted deep dives into the team's workflow. The situation was grim. Scope creep had mutated the project's original goals, communication channels resembled a game of broken telephone, and morale was at an all-time low.
