AI Adoption that drives your strategy

Most AI programs measure licenses and logins. We measure whether your strategy moves faster. For leadership teams in complex, matrixed organizations: tool-agnostic, from the first use case to agents in production.

Talk through your strategic goals and where AI could move them fastest.

Why enterprise AI adoption stalls

Licenses get bought and pilots get launched, but none of it is tied to the strategy. So AI stays a side project instead of moving the goals that matter.

Use cases without a goal

Pilots get picked because they are exciting, not because they move a strategic goal, so nobody knows which ones to scale.

Productivity, not impact

People write faster emails, while the strategic priorities move at the same speed as before.

Tools before strategy

The purchase comes first and the business case later, so every function ends up with its own AI and no shared direction.

What makes Wave Nine different

Most AI adoption programs train people on tools and count logins. We make AI part of how your leadership team runs the business.

AI in your operating rhythm

We build AI and agents into how your leadership team sets priorities, makes decisions and reviews progress, not just into individual tasks.

Measured against strategy

We track impact against your strategic goals and OKRs, not license counts or login dashboards.

Works with every major AI platform

We work with Claude, Microsoft Copilot, OpenAI and Google, and pick what fits your strategy instead of locking you into one. Strategy, change and engineering come from one team.

Start with the AI Adoption Diagnostic

Our AI readiness assessment starts where every AI strategy should: with your business strategy. Together with your leadership team and the people who do the work, we find out which strategic goals AI can move, which use cases and tools will get you there, and what it will take.

Where you stand

Which AI tools, licenses and pilots are already in place, who actually uses them, and what they deliver today.

Where AI moves your goals

The use cases across functions and countries that move your strategic goals, ranked by impact, not by hype.

What stands in the way

Skills, leadership habits, governance and ways of working that keep AI from scaling beyond a few power users.

What you get

A clear picture of AI adoption and readiness across your organization

A shortlist of use cases tied to your strategic goals, and the pilots to stop

One AI roadmap built on your strategy, with the tools that fit it

Our AI adoption strategy: how we make AI stick

The approach behind our 300+ transformations, now applied to AI: start from the strategy, pick the use cases and tools that serve it, then lead the change that makes it stick across your whole organization. We work with the AI tools you already have.

01

Strategy first: an AI adoption strategy tied to your goals

Building on the diagnostic, your leadership team agrees which strategic goals AI should move, picks the few use cases that move them and chooses the tools to match. Everyone works from one AI roadmap.

02

Leaders lead by example

AI change management starts at the top: leaders use AI themselves and explain how it serves the strategy, so every team sees what good looks like and adoption isn't left to chance.

03

AI operating model and workflow redesign

Teams redesign the workflows that matter most to the strategy, and our engineers build the AI agents, automations and integrations they need.

04

Hands-on AI training

Practical training for everyone, from the executive team to the frontline, built around real work instead of generic prompting tips.

05

AI champions and measurement

AI champions in every function keep adoption going, and we measure AI's impact against your strategic goals, so you know what works and where to scale next.

The result is AI that your whole organization uses to execute its strategy.

What working with Wave Nine is like

Working with Wave Nine was a great experience. They were conscious of the challenges we faced, coming up with ideas and solutions to address them proactively.

Franco Gatti, Product Management Excellence Lead, ABB

Wave Nine was really helpful, making themselves available at any hour, which was especially important given the time difference. From the start, we felt like Wave Nine was a real partner.

Wave Nine’s dedication was amazing. We really didn’t want to bring in a company that would just hand us some templates and call it a day. They went out of their way to understand our business needs, landscape, and strategy.

Your Questions, Answered

Do we need a specific AI platform?

No. The tools follow the strategy, not the other way around. We are tool-agnostic, work with what you already use, whether that is Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude or something else, and help you add new tools only where your goals call for them.

Do you just advise, or do you build too?

Both. Our engineers set up and connect the agents, automations and integrations your teams will actually use, while we redesign the workflows around them and bring your people along with training and change management. Strategy, build and adoption from one team, so nothing gets lost in the handover.

Who is this for?

Complex organizations: typically matrixed, international and often in the middle of a transformation, where AI has to work across functions, countries and levels, not just for individual productivity. Our work is usually sponsored by the CEO, COO, Chief Strategy Officer or HR.
