Speaking Topics
I speak at conferences, community events, and company offsites about AI transformation, Agile, and DevOps. My talks are built from practice, not theory — I share what I’ve learned from the work, not what I’ve read in books.
If you’re looking for a speaker who can connect with practitioners, tell real stories, and give people frameworks they can actually use, let’s talk.
From Pilot to Production: Making AI Transformation Stick
Most organizations can start an AI pilot. Few know how to scale it. This talk walks through the LEAP framework — a four-stage model for moving from experiment to enterprise.
AI-Enabled Agile Teams: New Roles, New Rules
Agile was built for human teams. AI changes that. This talk explores how roles evolve, how workflows change, and how teams can adapt without losing the core principles that make Agile work.
Governing AI at Scale: The SHIELD Framework
Risk management, compliance, security, and governance aren’t nice-to-haves — they’re the foundation for sustainable AI at scale. This talk introduces the SHIELD framework for governance that enables innovation rather than blocking it.
The AiGile Evolution: How AI Is Rewriting Agile Roles
AI doesn’t just automate tasks — it changes what work means. This talk explores how AI is reshaping roles like Developer, Product Owner, Scrum Master, and Agile Coach, and what practitioners need to know to stay relevant.
Calibrated Trust: What Leaders Need to Know About Agentic AI
The question isn’t whether to trust AI agents. It’s how much to trust them, for what decisions, under what conditions. This talk gives leaders a practical model for setting and governing AI autonomy.
