Summary
▶︎ #149 | Your Team Isn't AI-Resistant. They're Waiting for You. In this solo episode of the Leman Tech Leadership Podcast, Aleksandra Lemańska tackles one of the most common frustrations she hears from tech leaders right now: "We bought the licenses, we ran the onboarding, and my team still isn't using AI. "Her opening statement is deliberately confrontational: your team is not AI-resistant. They are waiting for you. Drawing on the latest research from Deloitte, BCG, Atomicwork, and IMD's 2026 AI Trends Report, Alex dismantles the myth that AI adoption is a tooling or budget problem. The data is clear: the biggest barriers in 2026 are organizational readiness, change management, and the human layer, and those are leadership problems. What's more striking is a BCG finding that leaders and managers are 43% more likely to worry about job security due to AI than their frontline employees, meaning the people responsible for driving adoption are quietly carrying the same fear as the teams they're meant to lead. If you're a tech leader watching AI initiatives stall despite investment and good intentions, this episode is the honest, practical reset you need. ✔︎ Mentioned in the episode: Deloitte 2026 State of AI in the Enterprise Report 2026 State of AI in IT report (Atomicwork) BCG’s AI at Work 2025 Research IMD’s 2026 AI Trends Research ✉︎ FOLLOW ME ON: ⤵︎ LinkedIn: @aleksandralemanska TikTok: @aleksandra_lemanska X: @lemanskills Startup Community Poznan: @startup-community-poznan-scp www.lemanskills.com Join Leadership Pulse! https://lemanskills.com/pulse/
