Every company has a Gary.

Gary adopted AI before anyone told him where the edges were. He's fast, he's useful, and he's quietly making decisions nobody has sanctioned. Gary isn't the problem. Gary is the symptom.

Somewhere in your business, twelve people are doing a version of what Gary does, none of them talking to each other about it, and none of them mentioning it to you. That isn't a technology gap. It's a leadership gap.

This test finds out how big yours is.

What you get

01Ten honest questions, scored one to five, out of fifty.
02Five stages: Unaware, Uneasy, Reacting, Adopting, Embedded.
03What your stage actually costs you, said plainly.
04The one question at the end that most leaders find uncomfortable.

Most organisations score between 18 and 33. Almost nobody scores where they assumed they would.

AI doesn't need more rules.
It needs better leadership.

Your score tells you where you are.

It does not tell you which issue to fix first. That depends on your organisation, your people, and what AI is already quietly touching.

You have also just answered ten questions on behalf of people who might answer them very differently. That gap is where the real information sits, and it is the one thing no leadership team can see from the inside.

Two ways to find out what it means

Start here · Private session · 75 minutes The Gary Debrief NZ$395 + GST

We go through your answers together and work out what they actually mean for your business. Where AI is creating hidden risk, where it is creating wasted opportunity, and what you should do about it first.

  • A proper read of the answers you gave
  • The three leadership gaps creating the most risk for you specifically
  • One priority workflow or leadership issue to tackle first
  • A one-page Gary Action Plan, written for you
  • Three things to do in the next thirty days
  • The recording, so you can send it to whoever needs to hear it
  • An honest answer on whether you need an audit, a workshop, or neither

Book a Gary Audit within seven days and the NZ$395 comes off the price. You will not pay twice.

Book my Gary Debrief
For the whole organisation The Gary Audit From NZ$2,500 + GST · 2 to 3 weeks

The Debrief tells you what you think is happening. The Audit asks the same questions across your whole business, anonymously, so people tell the truth. Then it tells you what your leaders do not know about their own teams.

  • Anonymous survey across the business
  • Confidential conversations with a handful of people
  • An honest written read of where adoption is stalling and why
  • What I would do about it, in order
How that works

I take a small number of Debriefs each month, because they only work if I have actually read your answers before we start.

Or just talk to me

If you would rather not buy anything yet, that is completely fine. Tell me what is going on and I will tell you honestly whether you need any of this.
