Beyond AI Adoption: Tactics for Acceleration

Just giving your employees access to ChatGPT is not enough, yet many companies stop there and tell the board “We’ve adopted AI!”

Our goal is to give you approaches you can implement tomorrow to take your company from early-stage AI use to real strategic integration across all teams.

This webinar explores strategies for accelerating AI adoption across organizations, moving beyond basic implementation to systematic transformation. John Levitt from elvex and Krish Menon from Angry Gods discuss four key areas: establishing AI governance and policies, structuring teams with embedded AI leads, developing upskilling programs, and creating effective communication strategies. They emphasize that AI adoption has evolved from experimental curiosity to business necessity, requiring formal expectations and accountability measures including performance reviews.

The speakers highlight the importance of having AI champions within each department rather than relying solely on centralized experts, and stress that prompt engineering should be treated as a core 21st century skill. They also address common challenges like lack of executive buy-in and provide practical solutions for practitioners to demonstrate value.

The session includes a case study of Embark, an accounting consultancy that achieved 72% adoption within six months using structured implementation approaches. Throughout the discussion, they emphasize that successful AI transformation requires deliberate planning, consistent communication, and making the adoption process engaging and fun for employees.
