Where does the value gap show up first in your organization?

IAIM's briefing draws on McKinsey's surveys: in the 2025 survey, 88 percent of respondents said their organizations regularly use AI and about 6 percent were high performers; in the 2026 edition, only 37 percent reported any EBIT impact from AI. It argues that the difference is management, with four recurring causes: no single owner of the AI portfolio, pilots designed to impress rather than to measure, tools bolted onto work instead of built into it, and unmanaged risk. Value is created at the task, but the organization captures it only when someone converts the time saved into a result with an owner and a measure.
