AI maturity isn't achieved through technology alone—it requires organizational alignment, cultural readiness, and strategic implementation. Companies across industries are working to move beyond experimental AI use toward systematic integration that delivers measurable business value. How do you assess where your organization stands on the AI maturity spectrum? What frameworks can help prioritize your efforts?
Eryn Peters, Co-founder & co-creator at AI Maturity Index, is a future of work evangelist. She is the co-creator of a tool for assessing AI maturity, and regularly advises companies on how to assess and improve their AI maturity. Eryn is also the Editor of the Weekly Workforce newsletter and the Principal at the Startup Consortium consultancy. Previously, she was the Global Director of the Association for the Future of Work, and VP of Marketing at Andela.
Iwo Szapar is a serial entrepreneur with a passion for creating impactful solutions that enable people to work smarter, not harder. He is the co-founder of several innovative initiatives, including Remote-how, Remote-First Institute, AI-Mentor, and the Saudi AI Leadership Forum. Throughout his career, Iwo has helped transform how over 3,000 companies—including Microsoft, Walmart, and ING Bank—approach the future of work.
In the episode, Richie, Eryn, and Iwo explore AI maturity in organizations, the balance between top-down and bottom-up AI adoption, the relationship between data and AI maturity, the importance of change management, practical steps for AI implementation, and much more.
