Artificial intelligence is more prominent than ever in strategies and technology roadmaps. Yet insights from a new Forte Pulse 2025 study show that many organizations still struggle to translate AI into real business value. The study is based on responses from 450 executives in Norway, Denmark, and Germany and points to a recurring issue: AI initiatives are launched, but leadership responsibility is rarely taken in day-to-day operations.
The key question is not whether organizations are working with AI. It is who is responsible for ensuring that the technology is actually used.
A central finding in Forte Pulse 2025 is that AI often becomes a technical initiative, isolated within IT or specialist teams. The solutions work in themselves but lack clear direction, prioritization, and leadership backing. As a result, AI remains an experiment rather than a management tool.
When responsibility for AI implementation is not clearly defined, the technology is neither embedded in decision-making processes nor in the workflows that drive the business forward.
According to the study, technology is rarely the biggest barrier. Instead, leaders point to unclear structures, silos, and a lack of coherence between systems and data. When no one has the overarching mandate to prioritize across business, IT, and the organization, AI loses its impact.
At ZRM, we recognize the same pattern. Organizations that succeed with AI are those where leadership actively takes ownership: setting clear goals, prioritizing usage over experimentation, and ensuring that AI is built directly into the systems and processes employees already use.
AI only creates value when it becomes a natural part of the decision-making foundation, not when it lives a separate life alongside the business.
Forte Pulse 2025 sends a clear signal: for many organizations, the next step is less about more advanced AI and more about leadership accountability. The focus is shifting from what the technology can do to who is responsible for making sure it is used effectively.
This is a realization many leadership teams would benefit from acting on now.
