Why 70-85% of AI Initiatives Fail to Scale (MIT & RAND).
Traditional change approaches fail because AI isn't simply a technology implementation, it's cultural transformation that triggers fears that previous changes never touched.
The AI Reality You Are Facing
→ 52% of workers fear AI in the workplace (Pew Research, 2025)
→ 41% fear losing their job to AI (BCG's AI at Work study, June 2025)Fear is fast becoming one of the biggest blockers to successful AI adoption.
AI triggers identity-level anxiety: "Will I lose my job?"Traditional change models don't address deep emotional threats.
AI technology evolves in weeks, with over 40k AI tools available.Linear change models quickly become out of date.
Most AI initiatives can't quantify value or ROI before investing.Leaders are spending blindly and are uncertain about AI's benefits.

Leadership Foundations
PREPARE leadership capabilities, AI literacy, culture change readiness and responsible AI usage frameworks.
AI Business & Use Cases
PROPOSE strategically-aligned use cases & business cases with clear ROI, realistic planning and risk assessment.
AI Innovation Pilots
PILOT innovative and collaborative experiments & learning with adaptive, iterative approaches.
Scaling & Optimisation
PROGRESS from pilots to scale while maintaining engagement and driving continuous learning and optimisation.

With a deeply approachable, insightful and engaging course, Neil both rapidly and robustly increased my confidence in leading AI initiatives at my organisation.... I'm feeling energised with these practical (and blue sky) insights into how to pull it off.Laura Pacey, Chief Commercial Officer, RICS
Neil is a fantastically knowledgeable host, facilitator and guide. The sessions really helped me to think more on the subject of AI related to change and transformation linked to systems thinking and design. I really enjoyed the interaction and conversations with the other delegates.Frank Dias, Founder Ai x Comms Lab
Neil's designed his workshops brilliantly. A small group of peers and leaders with the opportunity to speak, discuss, and explore important ideas. There's strength in that kind of community.In a reality where patterns and rules for AI change are far from set, this kind of exploration is essential as we each refine how we'll tackle supporting AI change. Very happy to have been part of this programme. And what a great one it is.John Matoso, Change Management Consultant, Owner SubTonique
