AI executive support review checklist
A checklist for reviewing AI-assisted drafts and summaries before they enter executive workflows.
- Define the executive support outcome
- Match role scope to leadership cadence
- Use a structured selection process
Define the role
Start with the work, not the job title. For this workflow, classify the data, verify the source, check the output, confirm human ownership, and route sensitive exceptions. Write down the expected outcome, the accountable executive, and the evidence that will show the work is complete.
Set the operating model
Give support a clear operating rule. The role can prepare, coordinate, record, and route work inside that rule. It should escalate a new commitment, sensitive disclosure, policy exception, or request with no clear decision owner.
Choose with care
Review the process after real use. Keep examples of rework, missed response windows, and requests that changed priority. Those examples make the next version of the brief more useful than a generic promise of availability.

FAQ
What should support own?
Support should own recurring coordination and preparation with a clear output, owner, and escalation boundary.
When should support escalate?
Escalate when work creates a new commitment, involves sensitive information, exceeds agreed authority, or has no accountable decision-maker.
How should the workflow improve?
Review real misses and rework, then change one rule, template, or handoff that addresses the evidence.
