Set the minimum documentation for quantum computing readiness that is genuinely necessary, and stop there.
Organisational Readiness for Emerging Quantum Computing Technologies
Turn quantum computing readiness from a stated policy into a practice your organisation can evidence.
Course Overview
Vendors sell quantum computing readiness as a product; it behaves in practice as a change programme. The distance between a working prototype of the digital and data-driven work capability and a system the business can depend on is where most budgets disappear. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a delivery roadmap for this strand of digital and data-driven work as they go. Benchmarking exercises repeatedly place quantum computing readiness among the areas with the widest performance spread. They acquire practical criteria for judging when the digital and data-driven work capability is working and when it is only appearing to. It concentrates on the parts of this aspect of digital and data-driven work that determine outcomes and treats the rest proportionately. Teams frequently over-invest in documenting quantum computing readiness and under-invest in testing it. The content is relevant to those who own the practice within digital and data-driven work and to those who are held accountable for its results. The programme closes with an action plan for the wider digital and data-driven work agenda that each participant writes for their own organisation.
