An AI-assisted manager for board leaders across Danish sport
DIF wanted board leaders and new board members across Danish sport to have a sparring partner for their role at any time. We built an AI-assisted manager on DIF's own leadership foundation.
The Story
In DIF, the board is seen as a team and leadership as something you train. Through Idrættens Ledelsesforum, DIF gives the boards of Danish sports federations principles for good organisational leadership, tools for new board members and support for board chairs who need someone to spar with.
The material was there. The challenge was making it available to busy volunteer and professional board members at the moment they need it, in a form that answers their actual question.
How we helped
We built an AI assistant on DIF's leadership foundation, Idrættens ledelsesgrundlag, and the tools DIF already offers boards.
- Grounded in DIF's own principles: answers draw on DIF's principles for good organisational leadership, not on the open internet.
- Help with the work boards actually do: preparing board meetings, planning the year and finding the right tools and templates.
- Support for new board members: a faster start in a new role, with the material DIF has gathered for exactly that.
- Available whenever it is needed: sparring between meetings, not only when a consultant is free.
What's next?
The next step is to follow how board leaders use the assistant, and to keep it up to date as DIF develops its leadership foundation and tools.
DIF, the National Olympic Committee and Sports Confederation of Denmark, is the umbrella organisation for Danish sport. Through Idrættens Ledelsesforum it supports the boards of Danish sports federations with principles for good organisational leadership, tools and training, built on the idea that the board is a team and leadership is something you train.
