And did you know using regular self-compassion can transform how you respond to setbacks?

How I Work

Quick Win: How to take a self-compassion break

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/fa326977-3de5-4283-9b8b-af3500c58607/clips/c4c6891c-74a8-4d49-be59-b22000489591/transcript

AI might be saving you time, but if you don’t know what to do with that time, it’s not worth much. In this Quick Win, I’m joined by Dom Price, who spent 12 years as the Work Futurist at Atlassian. Dom shares a powerful reminder: saving time with AI is meaningless unless you know how to reinvest that time intentionally. After watching organisations roll out sophisticated AI tools without upgrading the human system around them, Dom explains why people often use their newfound hours poorly - and how a single, deliberate question can transform the return you get from AI.  

Dom and I discuss: 
Why organisations focus on AI tools but forget the human system that actually uses them  
The surprising behaviour Dom saw when teams became “35 percent more productive” - including a huge spike in meetings  
What happens when people gain time but aren’t guided on how to use it 
The small mindset shift that helps you reinvest saved time more wisely 
The reflection question that turns AI gains into genuine value: What’s the most valuable thing I can do with this time?  

KEY QUOTES 

“I don’t care what you saved. I care what you did with it.”  

“Take a moment before filling that space. Ask yourself: what’s the most valuable thing I can do with this time?”

Quick Win: The hidden reason AI isn’t delivering value at work, according to Dom Price 

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/fa326977-3de5-4283-9b8b-af3500c58607/clips/4414e656-fafb-4148-a6a7-b3a700029436/transcript

Hiring feels like the obvious next move when a business starts doing well. More people, more capacity, more revenue. The logic is so clean it barely needs questioning. 

But the businesses with the smallest teams are sometimes the ones making the most money. 

This episode is part of The Work Edit, a format where I sit down with someone facing a real professional challenge and we work through it together. My guest is Lisa, who has spent four years building The Culture Ministry, a diversity and inclusion consulting business. She came to me with a question I hear constantly: how do I scale? 

What followed was a conversation about why growth doesn't have to mean hiring, what a proposal win rate above 60% is really telling you, and why a well-designed experiment beats any polished strategy framework. 

If you run your own business, or you're thinking about going out on your own, this one will give you plenty of tips to apply. 

Lisa and I discuss: 
Why hiring more people often grows revenue but not profit, and how Inventium is having its highest-profit year ever with a smaller team 
The single line in your profit and loss statement that signals when it's genuinely time to hire 
How AI has reshaped businesses, and the surprising place it creates new bottlenecks rather than removing them 
What a high proposal win rate is actually telling you about your pricing 
The Inventium ROI guarantee, and the slightly awkward question worth asking past clients about what you should have charged 
How to treat a market shift as an experiment to learn from, rather than a personal failure 

Key quotes 

"If you are getting the majority of your proposals accepted, I would say you're not charging enough."

The Work Edit: How to scale a consulting business without growing the team 

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/fa326977-3de5-4283-9b8b-af3500c58607/clips/96af95b5-3528-4461-a614-b46c0077728e/transcript

How much of your week goes into fixing what AI just handed you? Not writing from scratch, just cleaning up, correcting, and nudging a draft that looked fine for about ten seconds before you actually needed it to work. 

That endless back and forth has a name. We call it slop fixing, and there is research suggesting it is quietly eating close to a full day of our working week. 

In this How I AI episode, Neo and I get into why this happens and the two very different ways of working with AI that decide whether it does. You will hear the difference between gunslinging and architecting, what a proper brief actually sounds like, and how to have a conversation with AI before you ask it to build anything. By the end, you will be getting version one at 90 percent instead of 20. 

What you'll learn: 
What actually separates AI slop from work that lands 
The difference between gunslinging and architecting with AI 
What a proper brief for AI actually sounds like 
How to have a real conversation with AI before asking it to build anything 
Why version one can land at 90 percent instead of 20 
Practical AI tools for productivity and focus 
Real-world AI workflows used by high performers 
How to use AI at work without burning out 
Smart shortcuts for managing time and mental load 

 

Connect with Neo Aplin on LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/neoaplin/) and via inventium.ai (https://inventium.ai), where he leads Inventium's AI training and upskilling work with organisations and teams. 

How I AI is a special series within How I Work where Neo and I explore how high performers are using AI at work to boost productivity, make better decisions and reduce overwhelm.
