The IEQ AI Adoption Model

Most AI adoption initiatives fail because organizations focus on technology before addressing human readiness.

Our AI Readiness Assessment flips that script.

Built on Vygotsky's Zone of Proximal Development theory, our proprietary framework measures what truly predicts AI adoption success: Awareness, Competence, and Confidence across an organization. 

Through our triabgulation methodology, we quantitatively baseline your team's actual capacity for change.

This human-centered approach rapidly identifies the cultural nuances that derail AI adoption, creating a precise roadmap aligned with where your people are, not just where your technology is.

The result: tailored strategies that move teams from quiet resistance to confident adoption, because culture leads, and technology follows.
