AI may be changing the pace of business, but technology is only part of the transformation story.
In this episode of The Power of Agile, Evan Leybourn, Head of Research and Co-Founder of the Business Agility Institute, explains why AI transformation often gets slowed down not by the technology itself, but by the business environment around it.
As Evan puts it, adding AI to an organization that cannot adapt is “like putting a Ferrari engine in a bus chassis in the streets of Bangalore. You’re going nowhere very quickly.”
Drawing on behavioral research across 2,500 organizations and insights from the latest Business Agility Report, this episode explores why AI exposes existing bottlenecks, how leadership and decision-making shape adaptability, and what it takes to become truly tomorrow-ready.
