PEOPLE ◆ PRACTICE ◆ PROGRESS

Most organizations deploying AI are running three unsolved problems at once. Risk, reskilling, and adoption.

RISK

When AI creates or exposes new risk, who owns the mitigation?

RESKILLING

What does reskilling cost, measured against replacing those people?

ADOPTION

Of the people given an AI tool ninety days ago, how many work differently today?

Not answering these three questions quickly and specifically leads to confusion and uncertainty. Praxis Pathways is built to answer all three in one ninety-day engagement.
01

What clarity looks like

02

One baseline. One measurement event. One report.

Governance vendors document risk and leave a policy. Software vendors ship licenses and a dashboard. Training vendors sell fluency. We deliver risk and governance, workforce and economics, and adoption and human judgment.

Each of us leads our own dimensions, and all three of us are in the engagement from week zero to day ninety. You are not handed between vendors.

The Praxis Pathways Method

Risk and governance

A 38-question diagnostic across four domains, where every question asks how a control functions rather than whether it exists on paper.

  • AI Risk Maturity Profile. Domain-by-domain scoring across strategy, operations, finance and regulatory, rated Nascent to Advanced, for a board audience.
  • Governance position and NIST crosswalk. Scores whether governance functions across accountability, documentation, oversight and board visibility, each finding mapped to NIST AI RMF.
  • 400-risk, 8-industry catalog. 400 AI risks across eight industries, linked to your diagnostic gaps, exporting in risk register format.
  • Board-ready heat map. Risk concentration scored Critical through Minimal, built to go into a board deck without translation.

Workforce and economics

Which roles AI exposes, where those people can go, and what the move costs measured against replacing and rehiring.

  • WorkForce ROI Calculus™. Monte Carlo simulation comparing reskilling versus layoffs with board-ready financial projections.
  • DWS Workforce Intelligence Suite™. Connects financial, operational, and talent data into one decision framework, with dynamic Executive Committee scorecards linking org goals to ROI and cohort success.
  • ReskillIQ™. AI-powered skills cross-match that aligns existing talent to emerging role requirements and provides detailed learning pathways for workforce development, curriculum design and execution support.

Adoption and human judgment

Whether your people direct these tools or follow them, measured at the start and read again at day 90. The goal is judgment rather than fluency, because writing a good prompt is not the same skill as telling a good output from a confident one.

  • AI Readiness Instrument. 25 questions across 5 dimensions, each scored 1 to 5, taken at week zero as the baseline.
  • AI Adoption Sandbox. A live multi-user workshop that produces an employee-written pilot backlog, filterable by department, with sensitive-data flags raised at intake.
  • Day-90 Manager Validation. The readiness instrument read a second time, and a structured review that asks what a manager observed change in the work, rather than what a participant reports about themselves.

Every artifact above is produced inside the ninety days and is yours to keep, in formats your teams already use. There is no platform to keep paying for afterward.

Schedule your 30-minute consultation

We open by asking who owns the mitigation when AI exposes or creates new risk, and where that is written down. If your answer is quick and specific, you may not need us, and we will say so.
