The Kado Adoption Path
Five stages for getting people to actually use AI and new ways of working. Technology delivers a return only when the people who do the work adopt it.
-
1 See Why
Leaders: explain the business reason in plain language, what changes for each role, and what does not.
Teams feel: curious, sometimes worried about what it means for their job.
Tool: a one-page "why, what, what not" brief per team.
-
2 Choose In
Leaders: involve the people who run the work in mapping and redesign, so the new way is partly theirs.
Teams feel: heard, with a stake in how it turns out.
Tool: a working session where the team maps today's process and marks its biggest friction.
-
3 Build Skill
Leaders: train by role on real tasks, not generic demos, with time set aside to practice.
Teams feel: capable, once the first real task works.
Tool: role-based playbooks with three everyday tasks each.
-
4 Use It Daily
Leaders: remove the old path, appoint frontline champions, and fix blockers within days, not quarters.
Teams feel: that the new way is now simply easier than the old one.
Tool: a champion network with a weekly blocker list.
-
5 Make It Stick
Leaders: measure use and results at 30, 60 and 90 days, recognize the teams who adopt, and share the wins.
Teams feel: proud of the result and ready for the next change.
Tool: a 30, 60, 90 day adoption scorecard reviewed with the sponsor.
