I tried some tools after hearing that "AI would make my job easier." But it didn't change as much as I thought it would - such managers are increasing.

The cause is not a problem with the tools; AI cannot exert its power without organized information. Procedures in the mind of the person in charge, disparate Excel files, and approval rules that have not been translated into language - as long as this exists, no matter what AI tool is introduced, no results will be achieved.

And this is not "just for now"; the evolution of AI is about to enter another phase.

Phase 1 (now): The age of "asking" AI - but it still needs to be organized

Image 1

Current AI, as typified by ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot, is a tool that "asks questions and gets answers. Writing, summarizing, researching - these processes are done at high speed.

But even here, there are barriers.

AI is good at

Summarizing, classifying, and converting large amounts of text

Pattern recognition from past data

Generating and translating standardized sentences

Information retrieval, matching, and collation

Things AI is not good at

Processing of data with inconsistent formats

Operations based on tacit knowledge and verbal rules

Handling exceptions and irregularities

Deciphering of "this is how we do it somehow

Almost all of the situations in the field of small and medium-sized companies are "AI is not good at. AI cannot become a "usable tool" unless internal information is converted into data and rules.

Phase 2 (near future): AI will "do the work" - if it is not organized, it will not be able to handle the work.

The next evolution of AI is in the area of "agents. An agent is a system in which AI autonomously combines and executes multiple tasks when a human gives it instructions.

For example, the following instructions will become a reality: "Summarize last month's sales data.

"Summarize last month's sales data and send individual feedback e-mails to the person in charge of the issue.

Schedule training for new staff and send it to them along with the necessary manuals.

"Automatically place orders when inventory falls below a certain level and report back to the person in charge."

This is not a pipe dream, and some companies have already begun to implement it. However, there are prerequisites for an agent to "perform a task.

Prerequisites for agents to work

Sales data is centrally managed.

Workflow rules have been established.

Decision criteria are verbalized

Information exists as data.

What happens if the information is not organized

There are so many Excel files that it is difficult to know which one is correct.

AI cannot decide "What should I do in this case? AI cannot decide "What to do in this case?

AI stops because approval and exception handling are too personalized.

AI cannot read information on paper, orally, or in the head

Unorganized company cannot entrust anything to an agent. Even if AI says "I'll do it," it will have no information to hand over.

■So now the CEO needs to organize with Microsoft 365

This organization is not a job for the field. Which business operations should be made into rules? Where is the data scattered? What should be prioritized for organization - only the president has the authority and responsibility to determine this.

And the environment for organizing is already at hand: Microsoft 365.

Many small businesses already have Microsoft 365, but in most cases they only use Teams, email, and Excel. But Microsoft 365 has all the tools you need to organize your data.

[SharePoint

Role in data organization : OneDrive Centralized management of internal documents, manuals, and data.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　Consolidate disparate files.

Effect on the age of agents : Become the "only correct information source" that AI can refer to.

Power Apps

Role in data organization: Input work in Excel and Access.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　Unify formats and structure data

Effect on the age of agents: Data is accumulated in a format that can be read by AI.

Power Automate

Role in data organization: Automate rules work such as approval flow, notification, and posting.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　Clarify decision criteria.

Effect on the agent era: It becomes the foundation for designing a flow that can be taken over by agents.

Teams]

Role in data organization: Consolidate information sharing and decision making into chat rooms. Prevent scattered verbal and e-mail messages.

Effect on the agent era: Conversation logs remain as data, and AI can refer to the context.

Power BI

Role in data organization: Visualize and consolidate scattered data.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　Bringing indicators necessary for management decisions onto a single screen.

Effect on the age of agents: Become a "well-organized data base" for AI to analyze and make proposals.

In other words, mastering Microsoft 365 itself is the fastest preparation for the age of AI and agents. No additional investment is required. Just start using the tools you have now in the right order.

However, if you leave the decision of where to start and what to prioritize to the field, you will end up with only tools and no one using them. Only when the president decides on the direction to take will the project begin to move forward.
