S1E3 — Start with the Audit: Fix the Flow Before You Add the AI
AI can’t fix a broken process. It only scales it.
In this episode of Process of Elimination (POE), Ryan Edwards, Co-founder of Camino5, and Justin L. Brown get into the often-ignored first step of smart AI adoption: the audit. Not the long-winded kind — we’re talking fast, honest, ego-free check-ins that help teams identify what’s really working, what’s outdated, and what’s slowing them down.
With Ryan’s systems depth and Justin’s creative clarity, they explore how small micro-audits unlock momentum, expose hidden assumptions, and clear the way for intentional automation.
Inside this episode:
Why most AI rollouts fail before they even begin
The difference between a post-mortem and a living audit
How ego, legacy workflows, and tribal knowledge create friction
When to bring in outside perspectives to neutralize tension
The 5-question POE audit framework you can use right now
Why “audit before agents” is your best move for scale
AI isn’t a silver bullet — it’s an amplifier. This episode helps you get clear on what you're scaling and whether your team is actually ready.
