Week 404

Facing the Friction

Turning Resistance into Readiness

Focus

Addressing fear, doubt, and disengagement around AI adoption.

By end of week

Lead the team through the J-curve — the resistance that hides as analysis.

What this module covers

  • ·The week 2 dip — why every cohort hits the "this is costing me hours to learn" wall.
  • ·How to talk about AI on the team without triggering fear of replacement.
  • ·Practical scripts for the three resistance types: the skeptic, the silent objector, and the over-analyzer.
  • ·The cohort exercise: have one direct conversation about AI with someone on your team who has been quiet about it.

The cost of avoiding the friction is paid every week, forever.
