In this episode, we unpack what it truly means to be AI-ready in today’s enterprise landscape. While many companies rush into “shiny AI use cases,” we go deeper—breaking down the three pillars of readiness: data quality, infrastructure maturity, and human capital. But that’s just the starting point.
Drawing from the latest Cisco AI Readiness Index and industry reports, we explore:
- Why “strategy without execution is just hallucination” in AI
- How to overcome hidden pitfalls like disconnected data and underprepared infrastructure
- What a holistic AI-readiness framework looks like—spanning ethics, financial planning, and cultural adaptability
- How only 13% of companies globally are fully AI-ready—and what separates the pacesetters from the laggards
- Real-world insights on aligning use cases to actual infrastructure and talent maturity
Whether you’re a CDO, CIO, CTO, or enterprise strategist, this episode delivers an actionable roadmap for building sustainable, scalable, and secure AI initiatives in your organization.
