Description
AI Adoption: Engaging Teams, Removing Barriers and Embedding Usage
One day to turn distributed licences into real and lasting usage across your teams
- 1 day — 7 h
- In-person or virtual
- Expert
- Up to 6 participants
Licences have been rolled out to everyone, yet usage remains concentrated among a handful of volunteers. The rest try once, then return to their old habits. Behind this apparent lack of interest there are often concerns about job security, a lack of time to learn and the absence of use cases that genuinely speak to the business.
This 7-hour programme treats adoption as a change management project. Participants identify the different user populations and their sources of resistance, build a support framework based on internal champions, organise skills development and put in place the indicators that reveal actual usage.
Learning objectives
- Analyse the specific resistance of each population concerned
- Build a support framework suited to different user profiles
- Lead a network of internal champions
- Develop a communication plan that addresses the concerns expressed
- Measure actual usage and adjust the framework accordingly
