The Biggest Mistake Small Business Owners Make When Implementing Generative AI
Failing to Close the AI Skills Gap
According to BCG, when it comes to GenAI, five characteristics set the winners apart from the observers. These are: investment in productivity and topline growth, systematic upskilling, vigilance about AI cost of use, a focus on building strategic relationships, and implementation of responsible AI principles.
of the workforce will require GenAI reskilling within the next three years.
of HR leaders believe AI literacy is now a must-have skill for employees in all roles.
of front-line workers have not received any AI upskilling in their jobs.
The AI Strategy Gap
Artificial Intelligence is growing seemingly at the speed of light. Your small business must quickly get your team's head wrapped around it if you want to stay competitive or frankly, to just survive.
But most people are lulled into thinking that because AI uses natural language to process requests, it's easy to implement. And because of that, most businesses make the mistake of thinking employees can figure AI out on their own.
Implementing AI without a common framework and a clear strategy can lead to chaos, confusion, inefficiencies, and missed opportunities.
And in most cases, you won't even notice it until it's too late.
The AI Adoption Problem
Imagine your small business has decided to embrace generative AI, but each department implements it differently. Your marketing team discovers a new AI writing tool, while customer service experiments with an AI chatbot to handle inbound support requests. Meanwhile, your IT department struggles to make sure AI is being used responsibly, safely, and securely.
The result?
A chaotic, disorganized approach that leads to inconsistent results, inefficiencies, and wasted resources.
This scattered approach is unsustainable.
Your teams work in silos, and knowledge gained from AI experiments isn't shared effectively. The lack of a common language and understanding makes it challenging to scale your efforts and achieve measurable results.
To truly harness AI's power, you need a unified approach that brings all your employees onto the same page.
