SESSION 2 OF 3

Change Management: The Make-or-Break Factor in AI Deployment

27 October, 9am SGT / 11am AEST / 1pm NZT

Your AI programme will not fail because the technology doesn’t work. It will fail because the organisation isn’t ready for what the technology requires.

Change management is the most consistently underestimated element of enterprise AI deployment. Organisations invest heavily in the platform and the pilot. They also underfund the human and organisational transformation needed to make it stick. The result: adoption stalls, value leaks, and executive confidence erodes.

This session is facilitated by ARZO, who are specialists in organisational change, AI adoption and transformation delivery. Session 2 moves beyond theory to the practical realities of what it takes to bring an organisation through a genuine AI-driven operating model change. Real programmes, real outcomes, real lessons.

You’ll leave with:

01

A clear framework for assessing your organisation’s change readiness before deployment – not after

02

Practical approaches to building adoption across leadership, middle management, and frontline teams

03

Honest case studies of AI change programmes that succeeded, those that didn’t, and what made the difference

04

Strategies for sustaining momentum and preventing regression after go-live

05

A model for connecting change management outcomes directly to programme ROI
