AI assistance potential
How much AI tools make the worker more capable
First-line supervisors of non-retail sales workers can achieve substantial productivity gains by leveraging deployed AI tools. Modern AI platforms, such as conversation intelligence software (e.g., Gong, Chorus) and CRM analytics (e.g., Salesforce Einstein), allow supervisors to automatically analyze sales rep performance, identify pipeline risks, and target coaching opportunities. Additionally, generative AI tools streamline administrative responsibilities—such as drafting performance reviews, creating training materials, optimizing work schedules, and analyzing market expansion strategies. While essential human functions like direct leadership, interpersonal coaching, and high-level client interactions remain central, an AI-fluent supervisor can manage larger teams more effectively and make data-driven management decisions far faster than a non-fluent peer.
What the work involves and who it suits, beyond AI.
What the two scores mean
Automation exposure is how much of the work current AI can already perform. A high score means the tasks are exposed, not that the job will disappear: how employers use that is a separate question.
AI assistance potential is how much AI tools make a worker in this occupation more capable. It is upside, not risk — a job can score high on both.
