A Forbes article by Kelvin Cheema discusses how technology transformations, particularly with AI, reveal underlying leadership readiness and organizational behaviors. Cheema argues that transformations create two datasets: one of planned metrics and another of emergent behaviors like issue escalation and decision-making patterns. He highlights that executive sponsorship differs from executive adaptation, citing Microsoft's 2026 Work Trend Index which found only 26% of AI users felt leadership was aligned on AI. The article suggests that resistance to transformation might indicate that certain leadership systems are not genuinely available for change, and that skeptical executives may be accurately assessing organizational incentives.
