The 2024-2025 strategic measurement study, conducted by MIT Sloan Management Review in collaboration with Tata Consultancy Services, examines how leading organizations integrate predictive and generative AI to develop and present improved choices to human decision-makers. Drawing on interviews with senior leaders in six major industry groups, our research reveals the emergence of intelligent choice architectures – a new paradigm where AI systems proactively participate in structuring and shaping strategic decisions. The implications for organizational performance, decision rights, and strategic agility are significant, particularly as businesses navigate increasing complexity and compressed decision cycles.

Research shows that better decision-making can be achieved through the strategic use of artificial intelligence systems.
The Strategic Measurement initiative, launched in 2018 in collaboration with Think with Google, explores leadership's burgeoning use of next-generation measures, including key performance indicators. Through a series of research reports, video interviews, and an interactive self-assessment, this program explored the role of key performance indicators (KPIs) as a leadership tool. Additionally, MIT SMR and BCG researched the connection between KPIs and artificial intelligence in 2024. Explore the archive below.
