Your AI Transformation Is Underperforming

The $2.6 Trillion Question
$2.6 trillion is being spent this year on AI. Only 0.3% goes toward teaching people how to use it. That's like buying everyone a grand piano, and giving nobody music lessons.
The result? One Fortune 500 company bought thousands of AI coaching licenses. A fraction got used. Another rolled out Copilot enterprise-wide, but only saw 13% sustained adoption.
The money is flowing to tools. The returns aren't following.
This isn't a technology problem. It is a thinking problem. Groundbreaking cognitive science research shows exactly why.
Three Things You'll Learn
Cognitive Surrender: The Risk Nobody Sees
A Wharton study of nearly 10,000 trials found that when AI gives wrong answers, people's confidence goes up — not down. We over-trust AI most in the areas where we think the least. Karim will show you where this is happening in your organization and what it costs.
Why Personalization Is a 4.5x Multiplier
When a 100,000+ employee Biopharma company personalized AI adoption by cognitive style, adoption jumped from 20% to 90%. Generic training gets generic results. You'll learn the framework behind the breakthrough — and how to apply it to your own team.
The Differentiator Your Competitors Don't Have
AI mimics thinking: analyzing, organizing, communicating, imagining. Understanding how your people think is the key to unlocking your most powerful competitive advantage. You'll see why metacognition is the critical capability of the AI era.
