What Does It Mean to Be AI‑Native? A new operating model where people and AI work together by default

From Using AI → Working AI‑Natively

AI‑Native work means relentlessly embedding AI into daily tasks and decisions.

Instead of asking, "How can AI help with this project?", the question becomes, "How does AI reshape how we approach this challenge altogether?"

In an AI‑Native organization, AI is baked into how work happens — strategy, product, customer experience, operations. Data, governance, and talent align so every core process benefits from AI's speed, creativity, and insight.
