Six dimensions separate AI-ready organizations from the rest — idea sourcing, investment logic, governance, testing, data governance, and success metrics. The Performance Elite made structural choices across all six. Not technology choices. Operational ones.
The report maps every dimension — with frameworks and a clear path to close the gap.
