Most organizations assume younger workers will naturally lead AI adoption in the workplace.
The data tells a completely different story.

Younger workers don't distrust AI. They distrust what organizations plan to do with it and that's one of the most important things leadership teams are missing right now.

Nearly 1 in 5 Gen Z workers fears AI will eliminate their job within two years. Excitement about AI among Gen Z dropped 14 points in a single year. 61% of Gen Z and millennials worry AI will make it harder for younger generations to enter the workforce.

Leadership is moving faster on AI deployment than most organizations realize their employees are moving in the opposite direction emotionally.

This week CCG's Marc Carroll makes the case that AI adoption is failing not because of the technology but because of trust. And the organizations that don't address it now will feel it in ways they never expected.

Many organizations still think AI adoption starts after leadership formally introduces it into the workplace.

Meanwhile, employees are already integrating AI into the normal workday on their own.

That creates a very real operational issue when departments begin using AI differently without consistent expectations around communication, quality, accountability, review, or workflow standards.

In this week’s newsletter, CCG's Marc Carroll explores what he calls “Shadow AI” and why leadership teams should understand what’s already happening inside their organizations before inconsistent AI habits become deeply embedded into the workday.
