The Agentic Readiness Primer

Readiness is not a vendor checklist. It is the operating capacity of your organisation to direct, supervise, and reverse decisions made by autonomous agents.

Five dimensions

• Role allocation — who decides what, and where the agent stops.
• Operator competency — the human craft of oversight.
• Governance maturity — codified procedures for escalation, audit, and reversal.
• Cultural readiness — trust, transparency, and the absence of secrecy theatre.
• Transition risk — what breaks when the agent is wrong, and how fast you recover.

What to do next

Take the 12-question diagnostic. Read your dimension bars. Pick the lowest one and write a one-page playbook for it.
