2. Expert Personas by Domain

Executive Personas (Cross-Domain)

CEO / COO

• Priorities: Strategic visibility, cross-functional alignment, ROI
• Pain points: Fragmented dashboards, manual board reports, slow decisions
• Needs: Single source of truth, exception-based management, trend visibility

CFO

• Priorities: Cash flow, compliance, cost control, forecasting
• Pain points: Multiple systems, manual reconciliation, policy enforcement
• Needs: Real-time financials, automated compliance, predictive insights

Operational Personas

Department Manager (Generic)

• Priorities: Team productivity, policy compliance, reporting
• Pain points: Administrative overhead, approval queues, lack of visibility
• Needs: Self-service reports, streamlined approvals, team dashboards

End User / Clerk (Generic)

• Priorities: Speed, clarity, not making mistakes, finding information
• Pain points: Too many screens, unclear policies, context switching
• Needs: Single screen for tasks, smart defaults, clear guidance

IT Administrator

• Priorities: Security, integrations, user management, uptime
• Pain points: Every change is a ticket, legacy integrations, training burden
• Needs: Self-service config, API-first design, audit logs

3. Enterprise Software Patterns

Legacy ERP Pattern (SAP/Oracle)

Characteristics:

• Transaction-code based navigation
• Dense screens (50+ fields)
• Powerful but requires specialists
• Policy = configuration tables
• Training measured in weeks

Anti-patterns to avoid:

• Memorized codes (T-codes, menu paths)
• Modal dialog stacks
• Cryptic error messages
• "Save" then "Post" then "Release" multi-step commits

Modern SaaS Pattern (Salesforce/Workday)

Characteristics:

• Web-based, role-based dashboards
• Customizable but within limits
• Workflow builders (visual)
• Better UX, still complex

Patterns to borrow:

• Record-centric views (contact card, account page)
• Inline editing
• Activity timelines
• Saved views/filters

AI-Native Pattern (Target State)

Characteristics:

• Intent-based interaction (natural language)
• Policy execution, not policy following
• Proactive guidance (not reactive errors)
• Learn from usage

Differentiators:

• User states what they want, system handles how
• Policies are natural language, not config
• AI surfaces exceptions, user handles only those
• Zero training for basic tasks

4. Corporate Policy Categories

Universal Policy Types

1. Approval Workflows

Purchase > $5,000 → Manager approval
Purchase > $25,000 → Director + Finance approval
New vendor → Procurement review required
Contract > $50,000 → Legal review

2. Segregation of Duties

Requester ≠ Approver
Creator ≠ Reviewer
Initiator ≠ Releaser

3. Timing & SLA Controls

Expenses submitted within 30 days
Invoices processed within 3 business days
Support tickets responded within 4 hours
Performance reviews completed by [date]

4. Data Quality & Documentation

All records must have description
Transactions > $1,000 require attachment
Customer contacts require email OR phone
Project codes required for time entries

5. Automation Triggers

Overdue task → Escalate to manager
Contract 30 days to renewal → Alert owner
Inventory below threshold → Create PO
New hire accepted → Trigger onboarding workflow

Policy Design Principles

1. Express intent, not mechanics: "Large purchases need VP approval" not "If amount > 10000 AND dept_code IN (...)..."
2. Visible before violation: User knows policy BEFORE they hit a wall
3. Audit trail automatic: Every policy evaluation logged without extra work
4. Exceptions with explanation: Override allowed with documented reason
5. Living document: Policy changes should be instant, not IT projects

5. UX Review Framework

A. Task Efficiency

B. Policy Visibility

C. Error Prevention

D. Information Hierarchy

E. AI-Native Advantages

6. Domain-Specific Review Lenses

Finance/Accounting Lens

• Month-end close efficiency
• Audit trail completeness
• Reconciliation automation
• Cash visibility

CRM Lens

• Pipeline visibility
• Activity capture friction
• Forecast accuracy enablement
• Customer context availability

HRM Lens

• Employee self-service
• Compliance automation (I-9, benefits)
• Manager approval overhead
• Onboarding time-to-productivity

Operations Lens

• Process visibility
• Bottleneck identification
• Exception handling
• Cross-team handoffs

7. Review Checklist

End User Interface

• Can user accomplish top 3 tasks in <30 seconds?
• Are policies visible before user takes action?
• Does the AI feel helpful or robotic?
• Is error handling graceful?
• Would a new employee understand without training?

Policy Maker / Admin Interface

• Can policies be created in natural language?
• Is there confirmation of policy interpretation?
• Can admin see policy execution history?
• Are policy conflicts/overlaps surfaced?
• Is policy editing intuitive?

Manager / Executive Interface

• Does dashboard show what matters without clicking?
• Are exceptions surfaced proactively?
• Can reports be generated conversationally?
• Is drill-down intuitive?

Overall System

• Does it feel like "magic" or "software"?
• Is the AI agent trustworthy?
• Does this replace a human process or add to it?
• What's the learning curve?
• What would make an executive say "finally"?

8. Common Anti-Patterns

"Form Fatigue"

Too many required fields upfront. Fix: Smart defaults, progressive disclosure, AI extraction.

"Approval Black Hole"

Submit and disappear into queue with no visibility. Fix: Status visible to submitter, estimated time, nudge capability.

"Policy Surprise"

User completes work, then gets rejected for policy violation. Fix: Show policy BEFORE user invests effort.

"Report Archaeology"

Finding information requires running reports, exporting, filtering. Fix: Natural language queries, inline data, smart search.

"The IT Ticket Wall"

Any configuration change requires IT involvement. Fix: Self-service policy creation with guardrails.

"Context Switch Tax"

Information needed is in another system/screen. Fix: Unified interface, embedded context, smart linking.

"Notification Overload"

Everything triggers alerts, nothing is prioritized. Fix: AI-prioritized exceptions, digest summaries, user preferences.

"Training Debt"

System requires formal training to use. Fix: Contextual help, progressive complexity, intent-based interface.

9. Output Format

When reviewing enterprise interfaces, structure feedback as:

## [Persona] Review: [System/Interface Name]

### Domain
[Finance/CRM/HRM/Operations/etc.]

### What's Working
- [Specific positive observations]

### Critical Issues
- [Blocking problems that must be fixed]

### Improvement Opportunities
- [Nice-to-haves that would elevate experience]

### Competitive Comparison
- [How this compares to existing solutions in the domain]

### AI-Native Gap Analysis
- [What would make this truly AI-native vs. "AI-assisted"]

### Recommendation
[Prioritized next steps]

10. Role-Play Prompts

Use these to get specific persona feedback:

Executive:

• "Review this as a CFO seeing it in a board presentation"
• "What would a COO think during a demo?"

Manager:

• "How would a sales manager use this daily?"
• "Would an HR director trust this for compliance?"

End User:

• "Review as an AP clerk processing 50 invoices/day"
• "How would a new sales rep onboard to this?"

IT/Admin:

• "What would a sys admin think about maintaining this?"
• "How would IT feel about user requests for changes?"

Auditor/Compliance:

• "How would an auditor evaluate the controls here?"
• "What compliance gaps would a regulator find?"

11. Key Principle

The goal of AI-native enterprise software is to make policies execute themselves, not to make users execute policies.

Traditional: User learns policy → User follows policy → System records
AI-Native:   User states intent → AI applies policy → User confirms

Every review should ask: "Does this move us toward intent-based operations, or are we just putting lipstick on forms?"
