TORONTO, Oct. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Teamland today warned that the AI "gold rush" is stalling inside organizations, not because of tools, but because of people's readiness. In a new position statement, the company calls time on "training theater" and urges leaders to invest in practical upskilling that turns AI's promise into day-to-day practice.
"Executives don't have a tool problem, they have a behavior problem," said Najeeb Khan, CEO of Teamland. "Slide decks and one-off AI days don't change how work gets done. Habits do. Our AI First® programs move teams from curiosity to confident, measurable use."
Teamland's approach focuses on workflow-level adoption, utilizing job-specific use cases, hands-on representatives, and measurable outcomes, including time saved, error reduction, and increased throughput. The portfolio includes AI First® Fundamentals for enterprise-wide literacy, Studio for role-based labs, and Strategy for leadership alignment, governance, and change enablement.
The statement outlines three actions for leaders who want results fast:
- Treat AI as a capability build, not an event. Tie training to real processes and KPIs.
- Make it safe to practice. Use sandboxes and "show your work" rituals to normalize learning.
- Measure adoption, not attendance. Track workflow usage, output quality, and business impact.
"Organizations that operationalize AI now will compound learning and competitive advantage over the next 12 months," added Khan. "Those that wait for perfect policies will watch faster competitors pass them."
Teamland delivers programs virtually and on-site across North America and Europe through a network of enterprise trainers and domain specialists.
