The Atlas AI READINESS INDEX (AIRI)
A Workplace AI Readiness Map & Measure
AI is reshaping every workplace but most organisations don't know how ready they really are, and the gap between what leaders believe and what staff experience is often the biggest risk. Without a clear picture, you're flying blind.
What is the AIRI?
The AI Readiness Index (AIRI) grew out of interviews with over a hundred HR and people leaders, CTOs and global tech industry luminaries.
It is a dual-perspective 8-10 minute survey across six pillars:
- Basics: Policy, governance and compliance
- Preparation: Processes, training and rollout
- Cultural Infusion: Effect on people / humans
- Output: Productivity and performance
- Fitness: Integration, infrastructure and data quality
- Crystal Ball: Planning and predictions
Leaders and Staff complete different surveys, the intersect with each other in the analysis.
Features
- Run the process on a trusted, secure platform with anonymity assured
- Access to a live and interactive dashboard to watch the results roll in!
- Each pillar and question is scored independently for nuanced analysis
- An overall score is produced for benchmarking internally via regions or business units
- Intersectional analysis is also made against gender, age and tenure
- Additional intersectional fields may be added (eg: country of birth, disability, religion etc.)
- Overall score also benchmarked externally against country, industry and cohort size
The business case
As organisations speed up AI use, success depends on having the right foundations in place. Without an understanding of your AI readiness, roll outs may fail to bring tangible benefits. This can pose a risk with staff, morale and productivity.
AI’s impact is the fastest growing cause of workplace anxiety. AIRI can help demonstrate your management of AI change.
Many employees are already using AI tools in their work, regardless of whether a formal AI strategy is in place. AI readiness insights give leaders a clearer picture of how AI is being used, where it's helping people, and whether it meets company hopes and expectations.
Analysing the ‘perception gap’ between leaders and staff is essential data to build productive AI.
Benchmarking your AIRI will also help you understand also where your organisation sits in the context of your region or industry.
