Teaching someone to drive in a city with broken traffic lights is pointless.

Teaching someone to drive in a city wwith broken traffic lights is pointless.


No matter how well they drive, reality is that they won't make progress. 


I was not surprised too see the same in Gartner's new study for CHROs about AI adoption.


-And please read this also if you are not the CHRO, it's on us all.- 


So, the Gartner research shows that changing how work is organized matters more than AI training. 


Baaaang. 💥


More than x rounds of Copilot training.

More than employees' acceptance.

More than knowledge sharing. 


And it makes sense. You can train people to be AI experts, but if your organization still requires:


→ Three approvals for any experiment

→ Detailed plans before trying anything

→ Punishment when things don't work perfectly


Then you're teaching them to drive in a city with broken traffic lights.


They won't be able to drive in real, just like simulation.


AI needs speed, experimentation, and comfort with imperfect information. 

If your operating model and the way things are done in your house rewards the opposite, no amount of ChatGPT training will help.


Fixing traffic lights first.

Teaching better prompts then. 


Whose lights are fixed? 🙌
