Hearing the buzz? Adam Grant is heading to Elevate NYC! 🤯

While everyone's debating which AI model to use, the smartest companies are already 10x ahead. Hi, I'm Eduardo Ynaty, VP of Solutions Engineering at monday.com, here with a #mondaytakeover to share why 99% of companies are getting AI wrong. Last month, I discovered something that flipped my entire perspective: The companies crushing it with AI aren't the ones with the best models or biggest tech budgets. They're the ones who mastered something completely different. The tough reality: ➡️ Only 1% of companies have mature AI initiatives (McKinsey)  ➡️ 74% can't scale any meaningful value (BCG) Why? Because everyone's focusing on the wrong thing. Your AI isn't failing because the technology isn't ready.  It's failing because most organizations can't change fast enough to use it. Think about it: AI requires you to reimagine entire workflows overnight. But some companies take 6 months to kickstart a new expense policy. Imagine your sales team suddenly needs to integrate an AI tool that auto-generates follow-up emails. The process of integrating that tool, training the team, and updating your CRM should take days, not months. The companies that win are the ones that can do this. At monday.com, my team has an unfair advantage—we can (and we do) redesign core processes in a day because change is built into our DNA, but it's not about wholesale change; it's about iteration. We need to shift from "If it ain't broken, don't fix it" to "Let's build on that, let's make it better." Process changes work best when implemented one step at a time. So, if you want to predict your AI success, stop asking which model to use. Instead, ask yourself this: how fast can we change one thing about how we work? That's not just your real AI readiness score—it's the future of your business.
