Readiness glossary

Executive Alignment

Funded executive sponsorship, success metrics tied to P&L, and the change-management readiness to put agents into the operating model.

Why this score moves

  • Whether AI has named executive sponsorship
  • Quality of the use case portfolio and prioritisation
  • How AI outcomes show up in operating reviews

Reading the four bands

EMERGING

AI work is opportunistic — pilots without owners, P&L impact or a portfolio view.

DEVELOPING

Use cases are prioritised but not measured against business KPIs the C-suite tracks.

ESTABLISHED

A funded AI portfolio with named executive sponsors and KPIs in operating reviews.

OPTIMISED

AI is in the operating model: capital allocation, talent and KPIs reset around agent-augmented work.

What good looks like

  • Executive sponsor with budget and KPI accountability
  • A prioritised portfolio, not a list of pet pilots
  • Use cases tied to business KPIs reviewed monthly
  • Talent and operating model adjusted for AI, not bolted on
