The technology is in. The milestones have been met. So, why aren’t you seeing the results?
Organisations are investing millions in AI, but implementation doesn’t guarantee adoption or business value. When adoption stalls, leaders can be quick to blame employee resistance or fear of job losses.
AI can challenge people’s expertise, professional identity and sense of control. Meanwhile, leaders face mounting pressure to deliver efficiency, productivity and competitive advantage.
But what if your people aren’t the problem? What if it’s how you’re leading the change?
Join Prof. Tricia Riddell (Elephants Don’t Forget), Danny Wareham (Firgun) and Toby Mankertz (Columbus Global) for a candid discussion exploring why AI adoption stalls, what employee resistance might really be telling us, and how leaders can reset their approach for 2027.
What we’ll explore:
- Beyond the green project status: Why implementation doesn’t guarantee adoption or business value.
- Why AI resistance is different: The hidden threats to expertise, identity, autonomy and trust.
- The leadership blind spot: How pressure to agree can silence challenge and undermine transformation.
- Efficiency isn’t productivity: Why automating more tasks doesn’t always mean better outcomes.
- The 2027 reset: How to cut through the hype, rebuild trust and build the capability to make it stick.
From this, you’ll take away a practical leadership playbook to help you identify where AI adoption is breaking down, rethink your approach and bring your people with you in 2027.
