Bville visit — Cowork game plan

Job

Listen → clarify → navigate. Not own their build.

One line: I'm here to help you think it through — not take it home.

Meeting spine

  1. What problem hurts most?
  2. What does good look like?
  3. What have you already tried?
  4. Where does the data live / who owns it?
  5. What's the smallest safe next test?

Consultant moves

Don't sign up

Boundaries

Point ≠ build.
Follow-up ≠ own it.
Ownership push: Your team owns it with IT — I can advise on the first cut.

Ready lines

Open

Dan pointed me your way — happy to hear the use case and help navigate options.

Boundary

I may not have the perfect build answer today. I can help frame the problem and a first safe test.

Close

Here's what I heard… Here's what I'd try next… You own the call from here.

If they ask "what can Cowork do?"

Pattern-level — not a build promise
  • Repeatable skills / templates
  • Fixed landing shape so outputs are auditable
  • Human approve before anything scales
  • Small experiment first — sanitized examples only
Overthinker rule: Brain spinning? Back to question 1 until it's crisp.
