AI adoption is stalling. Now what?

This session unpacks a pragmatic set of steps to help L&D leaders enable AI adoption across functions, with principles and examples of it being done successfully across large, complex organisations.

AI adoption is stalling. Now what?

This session explored what will be the biggest business need facing learning and enablement leaders in 2026: the failure of the business to realise value from its AI investments – and how L&D can lead the way.

93% of executives are pointing to human issues – particularly around change management – as the key barrier to AI adoption.

So, we’ll unpack a pragmatic set of steps to help L&D leaders enable their business across functions in the adoption of this life-changing technology.

After all the investment in tech, the investment that's been missing is in people – and that gap is where adoption goes to die. Employees are often wary of the technology – and already feel fatigued by so much recent change. They want more clarity, whilst managers lack the autonomy to experiment.

But we’ll clear the fog with pragmatic principles (and examples!) of it being done successfully – even across large, complex organisations.

  • How to diagnose where AI adoption stalls.
  • Strategies for grassroots learning through to leadership.
  • Frameworks you can use for AI enablement design.
