Strategic Guidance for AI Transformation
Understanding the Challenge
Four Critical Concepts
1. Shadow AI
The unofficial AI adoption happening in your organization right now. Employees are using AI tools to dramatically improve their productivity, but they are not telling anyone. This creates both risk (ungoverned tool use) and missed opportunity (productivity gains that are not being shared).
2. The New Generalists
AI is enabling employees to work across traditional boundaries. Your finance team can now write code. Your engineers can create marketing content. Your salespeople can build data models. This is powerful but requires new organizational structures to harness effectively.
3. The AI Dividend
When AI makes someone 30% more productive, who captures that value? The employee? The company? The customer? How this dividend is distributed will determine whether your AI initiatives succeed or create organizational resistance.
4. Workslop
AI removes content creation as a signal of quality. Anyone can now easily produce Workslop: work that appears polished but lacks substance. This creates invisible productivity drags as senior people waste time fixing work that appeared finished, eroding trust and preventing organizations from capturing real AI gains.
