The Adaptive Challenge Undermining Your AI Transformation
Why most AI efforts fail—and what leaders can do about it

Nearly 95% of enterprise AI pilots fail to deliver measurable business value.
The technology itself isn’t broken—in fact, it’s often more powerful than leaders realize. The real issue is how organizations frame the challenge.
Most executives treat AI as a technical problem: buy the software, build the infrastructure, hire the experts. But AI isn’t a plug-and-play tool—it reshapes jobs, rewrites workflows, and redefines how decisions get made. That makes AI transformation an adaptive challenge, one that demands cultural shifts, new ways of working, and leaders who can navigate uncertainty.
This guide introduces a human-centric approach to AI transformation, along with the Human-Centric AI Maturity Model, a practical framework to help leaders assess where they are today and build the adaptive capacity to succeed.
