Key organizational challenges from the qualitative data
| Specific organizational barrier | Key impact | Empirical evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Personnel time consumed by basic work | Prevents strategic development work and training | “Staff time goes largely to basic work, learning new skills always takes time” (R18) |
| Limited leadership comprehension of AI benefits | Inadequate support and resource commitment | “Top management does not understand how AI would concretely bring something new” (R18) |
| Price-focused rather than value-based purchasing | Results in inadequate technology that provides little value | “only the cheapest solutions are adopted” (R16) |
| Hierarchical and inflexible work culture | Creates years-long delays in implementation decisions | “Social and healthcare culture is still hierarchical and rigid” (R21) |
| Fear-based attitudes toward new technology | Staff avoid adoption due to concerns about competence | “Attitude against everything new unfortunately often stems from fear of not knowing how” (R2) |
| Insufficient qualified professionals available | Cannot recruit, develop, or retain necessary talent | “I don’t believe sufficient expertise can be found within wellbeing services counties” (R18) |
| Weak technology competence in social care | Prevents effective utilization of AI tools | “on the social care side, digital and technology competence is really minimal generally” (R28) |
| Poor collaboration between IT and clinical staff | Creates implementation bottlenecks and conflicts | “ICT administration is quite far from service production and communication seems limited” (R29) |
