2026: The AI Reality Show
Things are moving quick, huh? Just when you thought you had a handle on 2025 and stopped writing 2024 on documents, it’s over.
It’s 2026. It’s a new chance to write the wrong date down.
And before you think you can just coast into the new year, consider this: It is the year of AI.
The reality show that is the landscape of AI is in full production mode. It’s as wild as you might expect – filled with drama, success, hopes, dreams, challenges, tears, frustration, joy and maybe a flipped table here and there. Buckle up.
That’s because AI is not a slow-moving vehicle. It’s a freight train, moving faster than ever. Advancements, updates and changs surrounding AI are not trends. They are a transformative way to do business.
And like any good reality show, there is a lot of excitement around it. There is also a lot of fear, doubt, and uncertainty.
Change is tough. And the pace of this change is lightning quick.
So how will you handle this fast-paced change? What are the tools that you and your organization need to navigate the AI Reality Show?
Organizations, giving the thumbs up or turning on Copilot or AI isn’t enough. Successful adoption is complex, and clarity is imperative. It really comes down to one thing: Training.
There are humans on the other side of all this tech, so please treat them well. The transformation often focuses on the tools and not on the implementors. When your people and change management are overlooked, the foundation of that change is in jeopardy.
In all areas, organizations that invest in continuous learning and training will be the ones that thrive. In the matter of Copilot or AI, it’s a must. Things are changing and updating far too rapidly to sit back and think you’ve mastered the tools. Keep learning.
Why do we really need ongoing training? Well, let me give you a few reasons.... bridging the skills gap, driving adoption, building resilience, unlocking innovation.... shall I go on?
Embrace the AI Reality Show.
It’s not going anywhere but to the top of the ratings.
Make 2026 your year. Invest in your team in a whole new way. Support them as they gain the skills, mindset and resilience to turn AI from an abstract concept into a business advantage.
Showtime. Let’s go.
