Inside the project
Focus
How can AI become an organizational capability without diminishing human creativity?
The WAT Motor project focused on connecting training needs with technology. The organization wanted not just to purchase new tools, but to embed them in the way its teams work.
The account of this project was structured around the organization's own definition of its needs.
The “Problem-Solving Techniques Blended with ChatGPT” training was delivered by Ruhi Kaykayoğlu.
Technology becomes useful not when its use cases are listed, but when teams test it against their own problems.
Scope
We held a training session with participants from the organization on problem-solving techniques combined with ChatGPT. We focused on how ChatGPT’s capabilities could be used in problem-solving processes.
Implementation
WHAT ROLE DID GENAI PLAY IN THIS PROJECT?
GenAI was positioned not as a tool that produces ready-made answers, but as a working partner that helps teams address their own problems through stronger questions. Every example was drawn from a real business context.
What brings technology into an organization is not the tool itself, but teams’ ability to engage with it through their own problems.
The journey we designed

Kaykayoğlu project insight
The value of new tools begins not when they are purchased, but when people use them to ask stronger questions.
