Decision forums
Mapped existing forums and helped define future-state forum types.
Case study · AI + organizational design
From 40+ interviews to clearer governance.
At Accenture, I helped turn leadership interviews into clearer roles, decision rights, and materials the client’s leaders could use.
01 · The question
The challenge was not a lack of information.
The client had extensive leadership input, existing forums, and multiple workstreams. The harder problem was turning that context into a clearer model for decisions, accountability, representation, and escalation.
02 · My contribution
Contributing inside a larger consulting team.
I supported research, interview synthesis, governance analysis, and role profiles. Over the summer, I joined 45+ project meetings, synthesized 40+ interviews, and contributed 15+ slides used in leadership meetings across four workstreams.
I worked within an Accenture consulting team; the recommendations and client decisions were shared work.
03 · Governance design
Make authority visible before asking people to move faster.
Speed without clarity just moves the confusion downstream, so the governance work started by making four things explicit:
Decision rights
Clarified who recommends, decides, contributes, and owns follow-through.
Representation
Considered which roles and perspectives needed a seat in each forum.
Escalation
Helped shape pathways for issues that could not be resolved at the first level.
04 · AI workflow
AI accelerated synthesis. Judgment stayed with the team.
The workflow existed to compress the distance between a raw interview and a draft worth reviewing, not to skip the review itself.
Structure
Separate workspaces by purpose
Organized interview context and recurring tasks so prompts could be reused consistently.
Synthesize
Find patterns across interviews
Used AI to support meeting synthesis, governance analysis, and cross-interview themes.
Draft
Build working outputs
Created AI-assisted executive summaries and role profiles for further review.
Review
Refine with human context
Checked outputs against project conversations, team feedback, and confidentiality requirements.
05 · Outcome & learning
Responsibility expanded with trust.
I began by supporting individual pieces of a workstream. By the end of the summer, I was responsible for much of its final executive profile and governance story. That progression taught me to ask better questions early, use feedback, and make each draft easier for someone else to act on.
