BCG's People team had the tools but not the habit of using them daily. AI use was scattered: a few experiments, nothing systematic.

About 70% of the team were already using AI. The question was what for. People didn't know which features mattered for their own job and had no time to find out. They wanted protected time to experiment, and people sharing what they learned.

122 HR leaders took 15 Days of AI and applied each lesson to real HR work from the first day.
