The workforce dimension of the AI velocity gap
Enterprises are investing heavily in AI, yet many are overlooking the single biggest factor in delivering returns: a workforce capable of adopting it effectively at scale.
Our recent research reveals that AI is reshaping 93% of jobs, but most organizations invest just 0.2% of revenue in workforce readiness. And 60% of organizations say their learning and development programs cannot keep pace with how quickly AI is transforming jobs. The result is the AI velocity gap: the growing distance between what AI can do and what organizations are equipped to absorb, adopt and deliver at scale.
