AI Adoption That Sticks: The APEE Framework for Real Change (Analyze, Assess, Plan, Execute, Evaluate, Exit/Evolve) with Cesar Viana Teague
Manage episode 517571986 series 3661728
On AIBiz, host Sayan Bhattacharjee digs into the hardest part of AI—people. Consultant Cesar Viana Teague breaks down his APEE change framework to turn pilots into measurable wins without “big-bang” chaos. We cover stakeholder interviews, readiness scoring, champion networks, pilot-first rollouts, and how to keep momentum through clear metrics and over-communication. If you’re rolling out AI, ERP, CRM, or GTM shifts and want fewer false starts and more adoption, this is your playbook.
About the Guest :
Cesar Viana Teague helps leaders drive adoption for AI and enterprise change across the U.S. and Europe. He created the APEE model (Analyze & Assess → Plan → Execute → Evaluate → Exit/Evolve), offers a Tech Change Management Readiness Assessment, and is launching a course on practical change strategy.
Key Takeaways :
Start with reality, not hype: Run Analyze & Assess via brief stakeholder interviews across executives, managers, and frontline users to map readiness and impact before any training.
Pick the right change model for the context: After assessment, decide whether to use ADKAR, Kotter, or McKinsey 7S under an APEE strategic umbrella.
Plan in layers: Define objectives → a handful of strategies → weekly tactics. Agree on what “good” looks like up front.
Pilot, don’t “big-bang”: Launch with champions/early adopters in contained use cases to earn quick, visible wins and internal case studies.
Augment, don’t just automate: Frame AI as support for work, not a threat; reduce fear around job loss and “extra work.”
Measure what matters: Track time saved, quality gains, adoption/usage, and costs—review weekly/monthly/quarterly (QBR/MBR alignment).
Communicate on repeat: Use rich (workshops, town halls) and lean (email, chat) channels; err on the side of over-communication with integrity.
Rescue play: If adoption dips, loop back to Analyze & Assess, adjust tactics, and reinforce champions.
Scale deliberately: After pilots prove value, expand to adjacent teams; keep governance light but consistent to avoid chaos.
