Design your company around people,
put agents on the org chart for the rest

Most companies throw AI tools at their people and hope. The result slows companies down, or ends up with people being run like machines. Put people on top of agents, not in the loop with them.

Design your company around people

Human Attention is finite. Tokens are not.

Orgs love that generative tools remove the cost of producing content. But they don't respect the cost of reading it, acting on it, or being measured by it.

Respect Cognitive Bandwidth

Free up your best minds

One prompt turns a quick check-in into a five-question survey with sub-points. Sent to a hundred colleagues, the cost lands on the readers, not the sender.

Preserve Context Integrity

Protect your decisions

Analysis is generated faster than anyone can read it, then summarized by the same tools. What survives is the generic; what was specific to your company gets dropped, and decisions are made on generic residue.

Design a Boundary Architecture

Retain pristine ground-truth

When input materials arrive synthesized, decisions inherit blind spots and false truths. The two domains need a boundary, not an interchangeable pipeline.

Put agents on the org chart

Put people on top of agents, not in the loop with them

Just like human resources, agentic resources execute work. Don't manage one by HR and the other by your tech org - they need a unified approach, yet completely separate handling

Unified Capacity

People and agent work managed in a unified pool

A parrallel structure that assigns, reviews and stops work.

Impact Alignment

People thrive on trust, agents can never be trusted

Humans grow with each success, agents always arrive like on the first day. Work results need to be handled accordingly.

Incentive and milestone Design

Peoples need rewards, agent need constraints

Human motivation has limits and needs reward; an agent's does not. Goals and KPIs written for one will be gamed by the other, requiring a new setup.
