Koshima has released its latest insights report, The State of AI in Corporate Strategy Teams (GCC), based on anonymised engagements across the region.
The report highlights six recurring challenges that continue to shape how corporate strategy functions adopt and scale AI:
- Administrative overload
- Brittle market and competitor data collection
- Board-quality reporting bottlenecks
- Uneven AI literacy and governance
- Repetitive content creation
- Weak meeting follow-through.
Our research shows that while AI adoption is widespread in pockets, meaningful value is often trapped by manual workflows, inconsistent skills, and stalled pilots.
To move forward, strategy leaders need to focus on incremental gains that lead to transformation.
By prioritising workflows with measurable impact, re-creating them as hands-on exercises, and embedding lightweight governance, organisations can accelerate adoption and scale responsibly.
The report outlines a practical playbook for executives: think big, start small, start now.
It demonstrates how role-specific upskilling and applied pilots deliver visible wins that build momentum, confidence, and trust in AI’s role at the strategy table.
