Stop Spinning Your Wheels
The Issue Solving Track shouldn’t feel like Groundhog Day. Learn how AI can help you pinpoint root causes, suggest solutions, and track outcomes across recurring themes—making IDS faster, smarter, and more actionable.

Use AI to make IDS faster, smarter, and more actionable.
Why IDS Can Feel Like Groundhog Day
Every Integrator knows the pain:
You walk into your L10®, open the Issues List… and see the same items from last week. And the week before.
What should be a crisp Identify–Discuss–Solve process too often turns into circular debates, gut-feel solutions, and half-measures that don’t stick. Instead of creating clarity, the IDS™ track eats time, energy, and trust.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
The Missing Link: Data and Pattern Recognition
At its best, IDS is about cutting through noise to uncover root causes. But humans are biased: we remember the loudest complaint, not the most common pattern. That’s why issues resurface—symptoms are treated, not the disease.
AI can help by:
- Analyzing meeting transcripts to flag recurring issues and themes across weeks.
- Categorizing problems automatically—people, process, or data—so teams don’t spin debating “what kind of issue is this?”
- Highlighting unresolved patterns (e.g., 5 different issues really point back to one broken handoff).
Instead of guessing, you get evidence.
How AI Supercharges the IDS Track
Here’s how Integrators can plug AI into the Issue Solving Track:
- Identify Faster
- Use AI assistants to scan Rocks, Scorecard metrics, and L10® notes to pre-build a draft Issues List.
- Spot bottlenecks early (e.g., “90% of past-due To-Dos trace back to unclear handoffs in Sales Ops”).
- Discuss Smarter
- Summarize perspectives objectively, cutting bias and emotion.
- Use AI brainstorming prompts to generate 3–5 solution paths instantly, not just the first idea that hits the table.
- Solve with Follow-Through
- Automatically turn chosen solutions into To-Dos, owners, and deadlines.
- Track if similar issues pop back up—so you know if the solution actually worked.
Mini Case: From Stuck to Solved
One EOS company fed six months of L10® issue notes into an AI tool.
The AI flagged that “customer onboarding delays,” “support tickets piling up,” and “sales-to-service tension” were all tied to one root cause: inconsistent CRM field use during handoff.
By surfacing that pattern, the team solved three problems with one process fix. Within 60 days, onboarding time dropped 30%.
That’s IDS done right.
Don’t Fear the Robots—Leverage Them
AI isn’t replacing the IDS process. It’s reinforcing it. You still need human judgment, team alignment, and accountability. But with AI doing the heavy lifting of pattern recognition, root cause analysis, and tracking, the Integrator gets back their superpower: keeping the team focused and moving forward.
Stop spinning your wheels. Start solving for real.
