17_Beyond Consultants and DIY AI: A Third Way to Drive Tech Adoption
Empower your internal project teams to build culturally aligned tech-adoption strategies that protects your ROI – without risking consulting dependency or AI-slop.
Problem
CIOs leading multi-million-euro transformations are currently trapped between two flawed extremes for driving user adoption: slow, expensive consultants who create long-term dependency, or generic AI tools that lack the cultural context to actually land the change. Both options fail to bridge the 'adoption gap,' leaving organizations with technically perfect systems that employees simply ignore. This failure quietly erodes ROI and creates unpredictable noise long after go-live.
Why it matters now
With employee willingness to support change collapsing to just 38%, you can no longer afford to outsource your most critical asset: stakeholder trust. Protecting your technology investment requires a decentralized approach that builds internal muscle rather than perpetual vendor reliance.
**What you’ll learn **
-In this episode, we break down the "third way" to drive adoption using the Change Playbook – a codified protocol that enables your team to:
-Build and lead an adoption strategy entirely in-house
-Eliminate long-term dependency on external change consultants
-Secure global stakeholder buy-in using local multipliers
-Replace guesswork with data to measure behavioral readiness early
-Combine AI efficiency with battle-proven human frameworks
Executive takeaway
True ROI on technology depends on moving beyond sourcing change support to building a permanent internal muscle for tech adoption through the Change Playbook.
**Listen now to learn how to lead your next high-adoption rollout without the risks of consulting dependency or AI-slop. **
