Question 1 of 6
How are AI tools being used in your business?
Stage 1 · Ad Hoc People experiment individually, but there's no shared approach or visibility into who's using what
Stage 2 · Aware We know some teams use AI tools, and there's been some conversation about how to use them better
Stage 3 · Assessed We've mapped who uses what, for which tasks, and we review usage regularly
Question 2 of 6
How structured are the prompts your team uses?
Stage 1 · Ad Hoc Everyone writes their own prompts from scratch each time, no templates, no sharing
Stage 2 · Aware Some people have their own go-to prompts, but they're not shared or standardised across the team
Stage 3 · Assessed We have role-specific prompt templates that are tested, shared, and refined over time
Question 3 of 6
Can you measure the impact AI is having?
Stage 1 · Ad Hoc No, we have no idea if it's saving time or improving quality
Stage 2 · Aware Anecdotally yes, however people say it helps but we don't have the data
Stage 3 · Assessed We track time saved, output quality, and business impact from AI usage
Question 4 of 6
Is AI usage aligned to specific roles and tasks?
Stage 1 · Ad Hoc Everyone gets the same tools, there's no role-specific setup or guidance
Stage 2 · Aware We've discussed different needs by team, but haven't tailored anything yet
Stage 3 · Assessed Different roles have different AI setups, prompts, and workflows tailored to their actual tasks
Question 5 of 6
Is there any governance around AI usage?
Stage 1 · Ad Hoc No, people use whatever tools they want, however they want
Stage 2 · Aware We've had conversations about what's appropriate, but nothing formal is in place
Stage 3 · Assessed We have clear guidelines on approved tools, data handling, and quality review processes
Question 6 of 6
Do teams share what works?
Stage 1 · Ad Hoc No, if someone finds a good prompt or workflow, it stays with them
Stage 2 · Aware Sometimes informally, a few people share tips, but it's not systematic
Stage 3 · Assessed We have a process for capturing, testing, and distributing what works across teams

This is just the starting point.
