Why Your Best Employees Quit Using AI After 3 Weeks (And the 6 Skills That Would Have Saved Them)

What's really happening with AI adoption inside enterprises? The common story is that employees need better prompting skills, but the reality is more complicated when 80% of workers abandon AI tools after the first three weeks regardless of how much tool training they received. In this video, I share the inside scoop on why the unlock is a judgment layer, not another workshop:

• Why the skills that predict AI success are management skills, not prompting, and what that means for how you design your upskilling program

• How BCG and Harvard found that AI users actually performed worse on tasks outside its frontier, and why that finding changes everything about deployment strategy

• What separates Centaur and Cyborg work patterns and when each approach produces better outcomes for different kinds of work

• Where organizations must invest to close the 201 training gap when basic tool training has already failed to move the needle

For teams serious about upskilling with AI in 2026, the missing middle is not more tool training. It's building the judgment layer that makes those tools reliable enough to keep using past week three.
