- Using AI as your co-pilot: Use tools like ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini to summarise interviews, draft requirements, analyse information and test ideas, then check the results with your own judgement
- Writing it up: Turn what you find into clear requirements, reports and recommendations
- Working with people: Run workshops and updates with different teams, and help them adopt changes
- Staying ahead: Keep up with new AI tools and work out which could help the business
