KEYNOTE - It’s still about the People even with AI
Dr. Alistair Cockburn, Co-author of the Agile Manifesto
AI promises speed and efficiency at a scale organizations have never seen before. Many C-level leaders chase these possibilities with the hope of reclaiming the predictability of the old factory model. But in that rush, they risk overlooking the very thing that creates lasting value: people.
In this keynote, Dr. Alistair Cockburn explores the consequences of the current AI obsession — and what organizations miss when they underestimate collaboration, trust, and the human side of product development. He shows how technology can be used not to replace people, but to amplify their creativity, insight, and ability to adapt.
Drawing on decades of experience in agile and organizational design, Alistair highlights how leaders can embrace AI without losing sight of the human dynamics that make products — and organizations — thrive.
Expect a thought-provoking session that challenges assumptions and offers a future-proof perspective: even with AI, it’s still all about the people.
