AI adoption is accelerating across sectors, but organisational maturity remains uneven. While 86% of leaders in our research reported ambitions to reach advanced AI maturity within the next 12–24 months, only 28% believe they are currently achieving scaled adoption that delivers measurable value.
Drawing on research with 35 senior leaders across global organisations, this report explores the human side of AI adoption and why leadership behaviour is emerging as the defining factor in successful integration.
Building on research featured in Harvard Business Review, it examines the behavioural dynamics shaping AI maturity and identifies the leadership behaviours that help organisations create clarity, build trust and adapt effectively in conditions of sustained uncertainty.
