Generative AI has long been perceived as a tool for creating artistic and literary pieces like blogs or marketing copy.

While acceptance grows, some consider it a parlor trick without substantial real-world applications.

In the age of Agile methodologies, the question arises, “Can generative AI transcend the bounds of mere creation and actively contribute to the day-to-day, nuanced workings of an Agile process?”

This eye-opening session will shatter the stereotypes about generative AI and uncover its profound potential in optimizing

Agile practices. We’ll begin by exploring generative AI’s innate ability to not only create agile artifacts, such as problem statements or epic definitions, but also its latent power to critically evaluate, assess quality, and provide intelligent feedback on these artifacts.

This process moves beyond mere generation and delves into real-time quality enhancement.

But Martin Bradley (LinkedIn profile) doesn’t t stop there. What if generative AI could actually guide the Agile workflow, analyzing artifacts at various stages and advising on the next crucial steps to enhance the flow and stability of the delivery process?

Through real-world case studies and hands-on demonstrations, Martin examines how generative AI can complement and actively steer Agile practices to new heights.

The lessons to be gleaned from this session are multifaceted. Attendees will learn how generative AI can be a pivotal tool in elevating the Agile process from being reactive to becoming predictive.

By unearthing the untapped potential of generative AI, we’ll uncover a pathway beyond mere creation to intelligent guidance, quality assessment, and strategic decision-making, all contributing to a more streamlined, efficient, and effective Agile process.

Join Martin as he journeys beyond the superficial understanding of generative AI and discover its robust capabilities that extend far beyond parlor tricks into the real world of Agile mastery.

This is the third and final webinar in the Afterburner Flawless Execution series.

Although it is not a prerequisite to participate in this session, be sure to view the first webinars in this series, 

1. The Flawless Execution Advantage for Project Managers and
2.  How to Identify Your Plan is at Risk: Managing Project Risk with Flawless Execution.

What do you do once your project comes to an end?

When projects end in success, we often high-five and move on to the next project or task.

This may be successful in the short run, but long-term, it is critical to pause after every one of your projects for a Debrief.

In Flawless Execution, the Debrief is where the root causes of success and failure are identified.

Joel Neeb (LinkedIn profile) will teach you how to conduct a structured Debrief to assure your team can scale successes and eliminate the failures that may have occurred during the project.

The pace of technology is staggering and the notion that machines will replace our jobs is receiving considerable attention.

By 2025 machines will perform more work tasks than humans, according to the World Economic Forum Future of Jobs Report. This prediction has worried workers and employers.

The good news is that organizations are thinking about the social implications of this man/machine shift and considering their options.

Deloitte’s 2019 Global Human Capital Trends report, “Leading the social enterprise: Reinvent with a human focus” reflects polling results of nearly 10,000 respondents in 119 countries.

Amongst its findings, CEOs were asked to rate their most important measure of success in 2019. The No. 1 issue they cited was “impact on society, including income inequality, diversity and the environment”.

Join Brett Wilson, Sr. Director of Thought Leadership & Strategy at Cornerstone and Julie Hiipakka, Vice President and Learning Research Leader at Bersin, Deloitte Consulting as they discuss:

• The pace of technology and its effect on jobs
• Design principles for the social enterprise
• The key 2019 human capital trends and their influence over the future of the workforce, the future of the organization, and the future of HR
• Key takeaways and approaches HR organizations can leverage to be better prepared for the “reinvention” ahead
