Why this course exists

What makes AI adoption work in practice

MIT research published in 2025 found that 95% of enterprise generative AI pilots delivered no measurable impact on the bottom line, and the cause sat in how organisations integrated or adopted the tools rather than in the tools themselves.

An AI rollout gains momentum or adoption when the people leading it have a clear plan for the human side of change, alongside the technology itself. With the right support, teams can build new ways of working into their day-to-day (i.e. adopt) and get real value from the tools they are given.

This course gives you a methodology for introducing AI workflows into your team and supporting them to adopt new processes. It's written in plain words, built around the questions your team is already asking, and shaped to fit around your actual job.

This course also gives you exclusive access to the AI-powered Detailed Change Action Plan — your project's overall change level, an expert insight into what you're facing, any important warnings, and the first three moves to make right now.

For each team, you'll have:

  • Alerts and the priority actions to take first
  • What the change actually means for them
  • How to listen and protect psychological safety
  • How to engage them
  • The key messages and communications to use
  • How to build their capability through training

It finishes with a clear read on where you currently stand.

Outcomes

What you'll be able to do

Leave with a practical, people-first approach for guiding your team through AI change — with clarity about what to do next at every stage.

What's inside

Five modules · 2.5 hours

Every module is built around the questions that come up in real AI rollouts — with practical methods you can use with your team straight away.

01

The People Side of AI Change

Understand the gap between going live and everyday use, why AI can feel different from other technology changes, and what the people side of adoption asks of you as a manager.

02

Build the Plan Before You Move the People

Get clear on the vision you're building toward, diagnose your team's actual readiness with the Change Made Simple AI Readiness Scorecard, then unlock exclusive access to your Detailed Change Action Plan — team-specific change impacts, priority actions, key messages and training guidance, built around your project.

03

What Your Team Is Actually Telling You

Learn to read what pushback, silence, workarounds and surface-level enthusiasm may be telling you — and lead conversations that help people move forward.

04

From Trying It Once to Making It Useful

Help your team find useful starting points for AI in their real work, build confidence through practice, and move from one-off experiments to everyday use.

05

From Rollout to Embedded

Recognise what genuine adoption looks like, build the habits that support it, measure progress honestly, and know how to respond when momentum slows.

A quick check

Is this for you?

For you if

  • You manage a team that's been given AI tools to use
  • The rollout came with training for the tool, and nothing for the people leading it
  • Some of your team are on board, some aren't, and you want to know what to do next
  • You want something you can finish, and use, inside a working week

Not for you if

  • You're a change management professional — this is the plain-language version of what you already practise
  • You're looking for technical AI training or help choosing a platform
  • You need a programme for a whole organisation — that's a conversation with Change Made Simple
How this is different

A course, not a webinar

For the people being changed

Most change training is written for change professionals. This course is written for managers leading a real team through a real rollout — in plain words the whole way through.

Two and a half hours

Self-paced and built around the questions your team is already asking. Do it in one sitting, or take it a module at a time between meetings.

Built from real delivery

The methodology comes from 50+ technology projects over 30 years, at organisations including NAB, Australia Post and Monash University.

Founder, Change Made Simple

I've spent 30 years working on projects and 20 of them in change management — more than 50 technology projects at organisations including NAB, Australia Post, Monash University and the Victorian Department of Education and Training, with more than 3,000 staff trained along the way.

In most rollouts I've worked on, the technology did what it promised. The real challenge was helping people adapt — especially the managers expected to make the change work day to day.

This course gives them a practical, proven way to lead their teams through it.

Before you buy

Questions, answered

Neither. It's organised learning content, with no recorded modules. Five modules where you answer questions and save the answers to printable worksheets. About 30 minutes a module, at your own pace.

Forever. Revisit any module any time. The worksheets are yours to reuse.

No. Module two is planning, before you move anyone. You run the free AI Readiness Scorecard first to see where your team stands.

No. It's not training on an AI tool and it won't help you pick a platform. It's about leading the people using one.

Probably not. It's the plain-language version of what you already do, written for managers handed a rollout. For a whole organisation, that's a conversation, not a course.

You answer questions about your project and get a report with AI insights across six areas: change impacts, psychological safety, communications, key messages, training, and where to start. Two to three actions per area, rather than one.
