Free AI adoption audit: where does your company sit on the WCS AI Maturity Model?
The We Call Shotgun AI adoption audit places your company on the WCS AI Maturity Model in 8 minutes and 21 questions. You leave with your stage, the barrier holding you back, and the failure pattern your answers describe. The report is free, normally €299, and needs no credit card.
What does the AI adoption audit measure?
The audit measures four barriers to AI adoption, people first: people (what your people can do, dare to do, and pass on to each other), leadership (the conditions you create: example, permission, ownership, measurement), process (what was genuinely redesigned around AI, and what was just bolted on) and foundations (the tools, access and rules that make usage possible and safe). You see which one is holding you back, and why.
What are the four stages of the WCS AI Maturity Model?
- Stage 0, Pre-Diagnosis: nobody has measured yet where AI would change the work.
- Stage 1, Ready to Pilot: the tools are there, the work has not moved yet.
- Stage 2, Scaling: the proof exists. The problem now is transfer.
- Stage 3, Institutionalizing: AI is part of the work, not a project with a name.
A stage tells you what to do next, where a score only tells you how you rank.
Which AI adoption failure patterns does the audit detect?
Six failure patterns come up again and again: the Back-to-Normal Drift, the Overenthusiast, the Silent Resistor, the Compliance Scare, the Tool-Switching Panic and the Leader Who Loses Patience. Your answers point to one, with what the book Teach Them to Drive prescribes to get out of it.
What is the audit based on?
The diagnostic follows the method in Toni Dos Santos' book Teach Them to Drive: the three barriers, the week-six trough, the Painful Tuesday, and the four metrics that matter. The methodology has been used with 50+ companies.
