The distance between where your technology sits and where your leadership thinking sits is where AI investments die.
There is a gap in every organisation between the sophistication of the technology they have purchased and the sophistication of the thinking that governs it. I call this the consciousness gap.
The consciousness gap is measurable. You can see it in the distance between the AI your organisation owns and the AI your organisation actually uses.
This gap is not closed by training
Training teaches people how to use tools. The consciousness gap is about how people think.
Closing the consciousness gap requires leaders to go first. To examine their own assumptions about AI, about work, about what humans are for in an age of intelligent machines.
The organisations that close the consciousness gap will not just adopt AI successfully. They will redefine their industries.
