Which Stage Is Your AI Rollout Actually Stuck At? Find Out in 10 Minutes.

The Scorecard Introduction · Why Adoption Stalls

Not "AI in general." Not "the team isn't ready." One of five identifiable stages.

What your result actually looks like
Your diagnosis

You have Access, but your gap is at Permission

Your people can reach the tool, but they don't yet know what they're allowed to do with it, so they hold back.

A specific answer, not a vague score out of 25.

If your AI rollout stalled, it stalled somewhere specific. Not “AI in general.” Not “the team isn’t ready.” One of five identifiable stages: Access, Permission, Capability, Behavior, or Culture.

Most leadership teams never get a clear answer to which one. They have a general sense that adoption isn’t where it should be, but not a specific diagnosis. That’s the gap the AI Adoption Scorecard was built to close.

Why a vague sense of "something's off" isn't enough

Without a specific diagnosis, the usual response is to throw more at the problem. More training. Another tool. A second announcement reminding everyone the AI tool exists. None of that works if the actual blocker is something else entirely, like nobody being sure what they’re allowed to do with the tool in the first place.

Wrong diagnosis
"Adoption needs work"

Leads to more training, another tool, or another reminder email. None of it addresses a specific blocker, so nothing changes.

Right diagnosis
"The gap is Permission"

Leads to a clear policy. If the gap is Capability instead, it leads to role-specific skill-building. Different stages, different fixes.

A specific diagnosis changes what you do next. If the gap is Permission, the fix is a clear policy, not more training. If the gap is Capability, the fix is role-specific skill-building, not a written policy nobody reads. Different stages need different fixes, and applying the wrong one wastes time without addressing the actual blocker.

How the Scorecard works

1

Walk through 25 statements, five for each of the five adoption stages.

2

Check the ones that are true of your organization today. No overthinking required.

3

Takes about ten minutes, start to finish.

4

Get a named diagnosis: the earliest stage where you checked two or fewer of the five statements.

That’s the bottleneck, because a team can’t skip ahead. If Permission is barely addressed, it doesn’t matter how strong your Capability or Behavior scores look. Adoption built on a missing Permission stage won’t hold.

What you walk away with

A specific answer. Not “your AI adoption needs work,” but something closer to “you have Access but your gap is at Permission. Your people can reach the tool, but they don’t yet know what they’re allowed to do with it, so they hold back.”

That's the same diagnostic question we'd walk through together on a call, just self-guided and free.
