Only 1 in 4 employees say they are ready for AI at work https:// fed.brid.gy/r/https://nerds.xy z/2026/06/skillsoft-workplace-ai-readiness-report/
A recent report from Skillsoft indicates a significant gap between AI adoption in the workplace and employee readiness. While 86% of surveyed employees are using AI tools, only 24% feel fully equipped with the necessary skills. This disparity is further highlighted by a disconnect with leadership, as 77% of leaders believe their organizations have adequately prepared staff. The report points to issues such as a lack of formal skills assessments, training that often occurs after deployment, time constraints for upskilling, and weak AI governance as key contributors to this readiness gap.
