It takes a human focus to achieve AI as a force multiplier

Over the past few years, organizations have invested in modern Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies at an unprecedented scale. The transformative potential of AI to streamline operations and amplify the effectiveness of staff is too great to ignore.

However, even when AI initiatives are successfully delivered, many organizations fall short of their anticipated business benefits. Research has shown that, despite its potential, the impact of AI is often undermined by organizational constraints and bureaucracy, such as rigid budgeting cycles, employee skill gaps, lengthy decision-making, and poor data quality.

Unlocking these constraints, and the potential of AI, requires a shift in traditional business practices. Leaders need to focus on new capabilities, such as cultivating a learning organization, funding work dynamically, streamlining workflows, and adopting governance systems that balance innovation with risk.

In other words, business agility.

Join us as Evan Leybourn, founder of the Business Agility Institute, unpacks the latest research on the relationship between AI and business agility with Peter Lam, principal consultant at Claritas Consulting. Together, we will explore what it takes to realize the potential of AI.
