There seems to be a mad dash to incorporate AI into everything, including the agile ways of working community.
As an example, this article—Product Management Will Be Taken Over By AI In 5 Years, makes a bold prediction of the demise of an entire species.
Matt Davis made a very brief comment when he shared the article—
It's never too early to start leaning into the human aspects of Product Management. Roadmap planning? Prioritization? Feature definition? Market research? Measurement? - All automated. Focus on the other things.
That connected me with the actual response we all should have to AI. Particularly for us in the agile community.
So, instead of—
Burying your head in the sand;
Frenetically trying to learn everything you can about AI;
Allowing it to replace your learning journey;
Or Building AI replacements for yourself.
Perhaps we all should be—
Leaning into the human aspects of Agile Coaching…
I’ll leave it as an exercise for each of you to discover what that means for yourself. But it doesn’t mean asking powerful questions, getting more certifications, or blindly following framework definitions.
Stay agile, my human Agile Coaching friends,
Bob.
