AI Maturity in Business: Strategic Framework, Governance and Evidence from Polish Enterprises

The book comprehensively examines how enterprises develop, embed, and govern AI capabilities as part of their strategic and operational transformation.Bridging fragmented discussions across management studies, information systems, and computer science, the monograph introduces a multidimensional AI maturity framework that places technological advancement within broader strategic, human, cultural, and regulatory contexts.The framework integrates six key dimensions-leadership and AI vision; data and technology foundations; human capital and change enablement; organizational culture; governance, ethics, and compliance; and value realization-providing a holistic lens for understanding how organizations progress from initial experimentation to fully optimized, responsibly governed AI operations.The empirical part relies on an original survey of around 600 enterprises of various industries and sizes.
