AI Adoption and Change Management

AI change management is the work of getting people to use a new AI tool well: redesigning the job, training, measuring, and removing fear. It matters because the tool is rarely the bottleneck.

Example: a support team pairs an assistant with coaching and its newest agents improve most.
