A TEN-QUESTION DIAGNOSTIC
Where does your team actually sit on AI?
Most teams overestimate their AI literacy. The ones who don't are the ones quietly outperforming on delivery because the discipline behind the tools matters more than the tools themselves.

Why this matters now
Regulatory pressure is real
EU AI Act Article 4 has mandated workforce AI literacy since February 2025. Civil liability has been active since August. Most organisations have a documented compliance gap they haven't measured.
Self-assessment is unreliable
Teams that say "we're past the basics" often mean they have ChatGPT subscriptions. The gap between perceived and actual maturity is the most expensive blind spot in your operating plan.
The discipline is the lever
DORA 2025 and the most rigorous research agree: AI doesn't fix a team — it amplifies what's already there. Smooth delivery before, AI after. Discipline first, tools second.
The model behind the questions
Five dimensions of AI literacy, four tiers of organisational maturity. The assessment places you on this grid — and points you toward the program that meets you where you are.
