AI Readiness​
Discovery Projects

The promise of AI-driven transformation often stalls at the point where experimentation should evolve into measurable business impact.

Why? Because most organizations have not adequately prepared for integrating AI into their operations and structures.

AI readiness is a decisive factor for organizational competitiveness in the digital economy.

Are your people AI ready?

AI literacy has been shown to be a major factor in shaping workforce opinions of AI and its adoption. If employees do not have the relevant skills and awareness, they are more likely to distrust the technology and less likely to be productive and innovative in its use.

Yet only 16% of executives consider their people to be AI-ready, and only 1 in 5 employers has an AI upskilling programme in place.*​

To support you on your AI journey, DWG Consulting can conduct a focused assessment of your employees’ attitudes towards AI and the skills they will need to use it effectively through a People AI Readiness Discovery Project.

The core aim of the project is to help clients build a strong foundation of AI literacy within their employee base.

Our approach to AI readiness discovery

Using DWG’s Framework for Digital Workplace AI Literacy, our methodology for assessing the competence and confidence of employees and the gaps that must be filled by upskilling, the evaluation has three key elements:​

1. Assess

Understanding the readiness of your workforce to use AI through a tailored, survey-based assessment of employee perspectives and their levels of AI confidence and competence (e.g. ‘I know how to prompt AI to get useful outputs’; ‘I recognize when I have put too much trust in AI’).​

2. Engage

Interviewing a select group of employees to dig deeper into their motivations and attitudes and the support they might need to embrace AI. ​ ​



3. Plan

Informing your AI upskilling work with a clear view of the current picture and the gaps revealed by it, including in the data and digital skills on which AI literacy critically depends (see above). Research shows that holistic digital upskilling programmes of this kind deliver greater return on investment than piecemeal initiatives.​
