What Is AI Readiness?
AI readiness is an organization's capacity to successfully adopt, integrate, and extract value from artificial intelligence initiatives. It's not just about having the right technology—it's a holistic measure across strategy, leadership, data, infrastructure, and workforce skills. A robust AI readiness assessment evaluates:
- Leadership & Strategy: Executive sponsorship, vision, and cross-functional alignment
- Data Management: Data quality, governance, and accessibility
- Technology & Infrastructure: Scalable, secure, and AI-compatible systems
- Workforce & Skills: AI literacy, specialized talent, and ongoing training
