Have you been considering how Artificial Intelligence (AI) could enhance the efficiency and productivity of your business?

There's just one problem. Recent research uncovered an intriguing yet not unexpected reality: There exists an AI/workplace trust gap.

Your employees may be concerned and wary about AI even if you believe it can transform their job or your business.

Here's a brief glimpse of our results:

AI has the support of 62% of executives in the C-suite but only 52% employees. When AI implementation begins, 23% of workers feel uncertain if their employer will remain committed to meeting employee needs.
But 70% of business leaders believe AI must be used alongside human intervention and review, showing they see it more as an aid than an alternative solution.
So how can you introduce AI safely, while assuring your employees of its protection? Now that we have more insight, what are some options?

Communicate openly and honestly with your staff regarding AI's introduction. Explain why AI will benefit both the company as a whole as well as individual roles - show them it's an ally, not something to fear.

Make an investment in training your employees on how to work with AI, so they can develop the necessary skills. Show them how AI can make their work more valuable and increase its potential impact.

Emphasize that AI initiatives do not aim to replace humans but instead enhance their abilities. Inform your team that AI will take over repetitive tasks so they can focus on more creative and strategic considerations.

Craft clear guidelines for the responsible use of AI within your company. Your commitment to ethical practice should be highlighted, while employees should know about these policies.

Include your employees in the implementation process, listening carefully to their concerns and including them in finding solutions for them. By showing that you value their contribution, you will demonstrate to them how much their efforts matter to you.

Encourage a culture that celebrates continuous learning. Inform your employees that you will provide them with opportunities for continuing education and development to ensure they remain valuable members of an AI-powered workplace.

AI in the workplace does not need to cause fear among employees; AI should be seen as a tool that promotes growth and innovation rather than as an existential threat.
