TL;DR: The AI Delegation Audit

Scrum teams inspect how the last Sprint went during the Retrospective. They are much less likely to inspect the work they have handed to AI, because no meeting on the calendar owns it. That gap is where a working AI automation quietly turns into risk: it keeps producing fluent, on-brand output long after the decision to trust it has expired. The AI Delegation Audit closes the gap by leveraging the facilitation skills teams already use in a Retrospective.

Thesis : The Delegation Audit is the missing inspection cadence for delegated AI work. It checks four things: whether the work still meets the standard, whether the model still fits the task, whether the team can still stop the automation, and whether reviewed assistance has quietly become unreviewed automation. You can try it on one workflow in fifteen minutes.

Sooner or later, a CFO will ask what your AI use actually returns. "It saves me time" will not survive that meeting.

The first wave of AI adoption rewarded practitioners who learned to prompt. That skill still matters, and this course still teaches it. The second wave rewards something rarer: people who can turn individual AI use into knowledge that survives departures, spend that can be explained and steered, and output that organizations can trust. That work is process design and change management. You have been doing both for years, on harder problems than this.

The Automation That Looked Healthy

A product team automates its Friday stakeholder update in March. The setup is careful: the model drafts from the Jira board, the workflow owner reviews the draft, and it ships. For three months it works. In June, the same automation tells an enterprise prospect that a security feature is in production.

No application code changed, and nobody touched the prompt. But the system around the automation had shifted: a descoped feature, a stale ticket title that survived in the product backlog, and a change in model behavior combined into a false update. The dangerous part was not a visible...
