Only 34% of Leaders Have AI Training. Here's a Program Built to Close That Gap

NEW YORK CITY, NY - October 9, 2025 - LHH, a business unit of the Adecco Group, has launched the AI Leadership Transformation Program: a six-month experience that pairs General Assembly's AI curriculum with EZRA's digital coaching. The goal is simple: give enterprise leaders the skills and confidence to steer AI-driven change with clarity and measurable outcomes.

The need is clear. Recent research shows fewer than half of companies offer leadership-specific AI training, and only 34% of leaders completed AI training made for leadership in the past year. Adecco Group data also indicates only 10% of organizations are future-ready, and fewer than half of leaders feel confident in their teams' AI knowledge.

Who It's For-and Why It Matters

This program serves enterprise-level strategic leaders-from mid-level managers to the c-suite. It goes past tools and features to help leaders build the conditions where AI adoption sticks and scales.

  • Foster open environments that reward experimentation.
  • Apply change management so individuals adopt with less friction.
  • Build continuous learning cultures that sustain adoption over time.

What Leaders Get

  • General Assembly's AI for Leaders: Superpowered Track: Practical strategy, agentic AI use cases, implementation frameworks, and ethical governance. Leaders learn how to integrate AI across functions to deliver enterprise value.
  • EZRA's 1:1 Coaching: Certified GenAI specialist coaches help leaders translate concepts into routines that stick in day-to-day work.
  • Expert Speaker Series: Three 1-hour sessions with Fortune 500 AI leaders, academics, and industry pioneers for real-world perspective.
  • Leadership Development Sessions: Group sessions to align teams, solve transformation blockers, and drive organizational momentum.

Proof of Impact

An EZRA case study with a top global tech company showed measurable behavioral shifts from the coaching component:

  • Nearly 40% increased use of GenAI in decision-making.
  • Over 20% expanded AI use in prioritization and routine task management.
  • Confidence and understanding of ethical AI use rose by more than 10%.

Leaders Set the Pace

"Successful AI transformations start at the top, with the leaders who set strategic direction, control budgets and guide digital transformation," said Daniele Grassi, CEO of General Assembly. "This program is designed exclusively for leaders to build the knowledge, confidence and skills to lead AI transformation and unlock the full value of AI investments."

"The biggest barrier to AI transformation isn't technology, it's a leader's mindset," said Nick Goldberg, CEO of EZRA. "Leaders can pour over AI strategy, but real change happens when coaching rewires how they operate day-to-day. This program is not just teaching AI skills; it's inviting leaders to shift behaviors within themselves to embrace and see value from investments in AI. This is where real change happens."

Why Act Now

Only a small share of organizations are future-ready, and most leaders haven't completed leadership-specific AI training. That gap slows execution, adoption, and ROI. Programs that pair skill development with behavior change close the last mile between strategy and results.
