Five Wounds of Change Webinar Recap
Why AI adoption rose and enterprise value did not.
Thank you to everyone who joined us live, and to everyone who registered and followed along after.
We worked through the five wounds suppressing value inside AI transformation, and why the fix isn’t more tools, it’s investing in the humans doing the work as much as the technology itself.
The Five Wounds of Change
The framework we used in the session. It stays useful long after the call.
- Fear of ReplacementPeople protect the work they believe defines their value, so they hide the tasks AI could take.
- Loss of MasteryExpertise built over years stops counting, and the confidence that carried the work goes with it.
- Decision FatigueMore tools, more options, more oversight. Judgment slows exactly where speed was promised.
- Trust ErosionWhen outputs cannot be explained, people quietly route around the system instead of using it.
- Identity DisruptionRoles change faster than the stories people tell about their jobs, and the gap shows up as resistance.
