15 QUESTIONS FOR LEADERS MOVING FROM AI CURIOSITY TO PRACTICAL ADOPTION
1. Where should our organisation start with AI?
Link2Grow recommends starting with business needs: identify a small number of recurring tasks where better access to knowledge or faster analysis could create clear value.

Link2Grow sees AI transition primarily as an organisational change project. Technology matters, but leadership, processes, knowledge, governance and staff adoption determine whether it succeeds.

Link2Grow finds that knowledge-based businesses often benefit quickly because much of their value comes from documents, expertise, analysis, decisions and communication.

Link2Grow defines it as an organisation whose work depends heavily on professional expertise and information, such as consulting, finance, law, engineering or public administration.
