Module 02

Block 02 – Find the Right Opportunities

This three-hour teaching block develops learners' ability to identify and evaluate organisational opportunities for AI and automation. Learners explore how to identify business problems, examine existing processes and use qualitative and quantitative evidence to discover opportunities for improvement. They consider potential benefits, feasibility, organisational readiness and the risks associated with AI adoption. Through practical activities and the Northstar Group case study, learners develop an evidence-based list of potential AI and automation opportunities, ensuring these address genuine organisational needs rather than simply introducing new technology. Learners complete Strategy Builder B: Opportunity Discovery, documenting opportunities, expected benefits, available evidence and potential constraints.
