Adapt or Be Automated: What AI Means for Improvement Professionals
Artificial Intelligence isn’t just for data scientists anymore—it’s everywhere. From large language models to generative AI, these technologies are reshaping how organisations work, solve problems, and deliver value.
For Continuous Improvement professionals, this presents a defining moment.
AI can accelerate PDCA cycles, deepen customer insight, and automate repetitive tasks—but it also carries real risks. Over-reliance can weaken judgement, erode engagement, and even threaten the culture of improvement that sits at the heart of sustainable change.
The future will not be “AI vs. human.” It will be AI + human—and the CI professionals who adapt fastest will lead the way.
Inside this whitepaper you’ll discover:
- How AI is already transforming improvement work across industries
- The biggest opportunities and the most pressing risks for CI professionals
- A practical nine-point plan for responsibly integrating AI into improvement practices
- The role of accreditation and the Lean Competency System (LCS) in developing future-ready skills
This is not a choice between embracing or ignoring AI. It’s a choice between shaping the future—or being shaped by it.
