Free field guide for CIOs and transformation leads

Get your stalled AI rollout moving again.

You bought the licenses. The dashboard says people use them. The work says otherwise. Three moves, grounded in behavioral science, that you can start this week.

What's inside

Three moves for a rollout where the dashboard shows adoption and the work looks the same as before.

1

Pick champions people already trust

The colleague people already turn to can move a rollout faster than your most advanced AI user. Find these people and give them a role that helps adoption spread.

2

Make it safe to be a beginner in public

AI turns experts back into beginners overnight, and few people will risk looking incompetent in front of their colleagues. Here is what leaders can do to make experimenting safe.

3

Give people real time to learn

Asking people to learn AI on top of a full workload produces checkbox adoption. Create protected time so people can build new ways of working.

Who this
is for

CIOs, CTOs and transformation leads whose AI rollout isn't translating into changed ways of working.

If the dashboard shows adoption and the work looks the same, start here.

AI Adoption & Change Management · PhD · Ex‑Accenture

At Accenture I led change management for Windows and M365 rollouts reaching 30,000+ users and 800+ banking institutions.

Today I research why AI adoption stalls, in 14 interviews with leaders across 10 sectors and five countries, and help leaders and teams change it.

This guide takes three practical moves from that work.
