This startling statistic underscores the challenges organisations face in realising the full potential of GenAI.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Key Challenges Highlighted by Gartner<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Poor Data Quality<\/strong>: Inadequate data can derail even the most promising AI projects&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Escalating Costs<\/strong>: The financial burden of developing and deploying GenAI models is significant, often ranging from $5 million to $20 million&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Unclear Business Value<\/strong>: Justifying the substantial investment required for productivity enhancement can be difficult&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The silver lining is despite these hurdles, early adopters are reporting notable business improvements, including increases in revenue, cost savings and productivity.\u202fHowever, these benefits are highly specific to individual companies and use cases.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How Insentra Can Help<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Insentra, we understand the complexities and challenges of implementing GenAI projects. Our\u202f<a href=\"https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/nz\/services\/advisory-services\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Advisory<\/strong><\/a><strong> <\/strong>and<strong> <\/strong>Adoption and Change Management<strong> <\/strong>Services\u202fare designed to help you navigate these challenges and unlock significant business value.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The roadmap to success<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Through Advisory, we can help you understand the art of the possible. This includes getting under the hood of your business and understanding how GenAI can add value for you, its capabilities and just as importantly, its limitations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/nz\/services\/advisory-services\/microsoft-copilot-readiness-assessment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Copilot Readiness Assessment<\/a> will prepare your organisation for AI and make sure you have the right foundations in place to maximise this tool. At the end of the assessment, you will have a clear roadmap for the deployment of Copilot, including understanding prerequisites and identifying use cases that will return business value quickly.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Managing change effectively<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We know from our own deployment of Copilot and from working with other early adopters that Adoption and Change management is critical to unlocking the value of GenAI.&nbsp; Copilot and Generative AI are just tools. To ensure that they are used effectively \u2013 or even used at all \u2013 you need to do three things:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Awareness and expectation setting<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Firstly, you need to ensure people are fully familiar with Copilot. They need to understand the basics of what it does and, just as importantly, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/nz\/insights\/videos\/late-night-brew\/copilot\/late-night-brew-what-is-copilot-not-and-how-do-you-use-it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">know what Copilot can\u2019t do<\/a>. Critically, people need to be able to relate this tool to their role and the work they do.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Breaking old habits<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>GenAI, like any new tool, unlocks new potentials. But we consistently see a spike in usage of AI in the initial stages, then dropping off as people fall into their old patterns of work. We can help you with strategies to minimise tool abandonment and ensure your team fully incorporates AI into their day-to-day work routines.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Become AI Artisans<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As I have said before, AI is just a tool. So is a paintbrush. But there is a world of difference between what a skilled artist can create with a paintbrush and what the average person is able to do.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now it is true, not everyone will be da Vinci. However, literally anyone can learn techniques to wield the tool more effectively and produce better output. Teaching people how to use AI with finesse is the third component which can add a ton of value to your business, maximising your return on investment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2024\/07\/image.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31474\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2024\/07\/image.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2024\/07\/image-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2024\/07\/image-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2024\/07\/image-768x768.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>Image prompt: Two people with their back to the viewer.
