​3 Tips for Collaborating with The Innovator on a Task Group: 

 

1. Encourage Exploration and Creativity: When working with an Innovator, provide space and resources for exploration and experimentation. Encourage idea generation sessions and pilot projects that allow them to test out their ideas, even if these don't always lead to immediate results. 

2. Balance Enthusiasm with Practicality: Help them strike a balance between their visionary ideas and the practical aspects of project implementation. Assisting them in building detailed action plans and setting realistic timelines can ensure their innovative projects are grounded and achievable. 

3. Support Risk-Taking Within Reason: To collaborate effectively with an Innovator, advocate for a culture that tolerates calculated risks. Help set up guard rails and monitoring systems that allow for innovative projects to be tested safely without exposing the organisation to undue risk. 

 

 

By understanding and aligning with The Innovator’s forward-thinking approach and preference for cutting-edge solutions, colleagues can effectively harness their creative potential. This collaboration will not only foster a more dynamic and innovative environment but also propel the agency toward achieving significant advancements in the use of AI for investment promotion.

3 Tips for Collaborating with The Guardian on a Task Group: 

​

1. Provide Detailed Information: When proposing the use of AI technologies, provide comprehensive details about the tools, their sources, what data they will use, and how they will use it. Ensure that all documentation is thorough and that data handling complies with both internal and external regulatory requirements.

3 Tips for Collaborating with The Realist on a Task Group: 

​

1. Balance AI Proposals with Practical Outcomes: When working with a Realist, frame AI solutions in terms of practical benefits and real-world applications. Ensure that proposals are grounded with clear, realistic outcomes that enhance, rather than complicate, the existing processes. 

2. Involve Them in the Evaluation Process: Leverage their critical thinking skills by involving them in the evaluation and testing phases of new AI tools. Their input can be invaluable in assessing the effectiveness and practicality of new technologies. 

3. Acknowledge and Address Their Concerns: Listen to and address their concerns about AI integration. Demonstrating an understanding of their points can help in fine-tuning solutions that they will be more comfortable with and supportive of. Make it clear how AI implementations will not diminish the importance of human skills but rather augment them. 

 

By appreciating The Realist’s perspective and integrating their pragmatic views into AI deployment strategies, IPAs can ensure that new technologies are adopted in a thoughtful manner that respects both the potential of AI and the value of human expertise.

3 Tips for Collaborating with The Traditionalist on a Task Group: 

​

1. Value Their Expertise in Relationship Management: When collaborating on AI projects, it’s important to leverage and acknowledge their expertise in traditional relationship management. Show how AI can be used to support rather than replace the personal touch they champion. 

2. Integrate AI Gradually: Introduce AI technologies gradually into their workflow, ensuring ample time for adaptation and learning. Start with tools that assist rather than replace human interactions, such as CRM systems that provide detailed insights about investors but still leave the relationship management to humans. 

3. Communicate Benefits Clearly: Clearly communicate how AI can enhance their ability to maintain relationships at scale, for instance by automating administrative tasks and freeing up more time for personal engagement. Provide examples and case studies of successful integrations of AI that have led to improved investor satisfaction and engagement. 

 

By appreciating and incorporating the values and concerns of The Traditionalist, IPAs can ensure that the adoption of AI tools complements and enhances traditional methods rather than displacing them. This approach helps maintain a balanced perspective that respects the proven strengths of traditional practices while also embracing the efficiencies and capabilities that modern technologies like AI can offer.
