Upcoming Webinar | You Bought the AI Tools—Why Isn't Anything Getting Better?

Host: Jim Schiel
Date: October 14, 2026
Time: 11:00 AM ET / 3:00 PM UTC

Your AI tools are working. So why isn't your delivery?

You invested in AI coding tools expecting more throughput, and you got it. Your teams are producing more, faster, than ever before. But when you look at the outcomes that actually matter, the customer value, the delivery stability, the sense that things are genuinely getting better, the needle hasn't moved.

Here's what's happening: throughput against unclear intent just produces the wrong work faster. When your teams aren't aligned on what they're building and why, AI doesn't fix that gap. It multiplies it. More code, same confusion, at a much higher speed.

The value and the bottleneck have both moved upstream, and most operating models haven't caught up. This session shows you where the value actually sits now and what to invest in instead.

The economics of software delivery just quietly flipped

AI can now generate working code faster than any team can review it. That single shift has inverted what's valuable in software delivery.

When code is cheap to produce, the durable, expensive assets become the things AI can't reliably originate on its own: clear intent, well-formed specifications, meaningful tests, and the architectural guardrails that keep a system coherent over time. These are the assets that hold their value while raw output becomes disposable.

For any team using scrum, this raises the stakes on the work that was always supposed to matter most: a product owner's clarity of intent, disciplined refinement, and a Definition of Done that actually means finished. The organizations pulling ahead aren't the ones generating the most code. They're the ones directing AI toward the right outcomes with the clarity to back it up.

In this session, Jim Schiel gives enterprise leaders a practical way to see where value has shifted in AI-assisted delivery, why "more code, faster" is the wrong scorecard, and what needs to change in how teams operate so AI accelerates the right outcomes instead of multiplying the wrong ones.

Who this webinar is for

If you lead a transformation, oversee delivery across teams, or make technology, product, or operations decisions at the enterprise level, this session is built for you. It's especially relevant if your organization has invested in AI tools and is now asking the hard question: where's the return?

You'll leave with a clear, executive-ready view of what AI readiness actually requires, so you can align your teams, your investments, and your leadership around the work that creates real value.

You already know the pressure of turning technology spend into measurable results. This session gives you a practical framework for redirecting your teams toward finished, valuable work, so your organization moves faster on outcomes and not just on activity.

Key takeaways

1. A simple model for what's now the expensive, durable asset in delivery, and what's become disposable output
2. Three operating-model adjustments that make AI-assisted teams faster on outcomes, not just on code volume
3. A diagnostic for spotting where your current process rewards activity over finished, valuable work
4. Language you can take back to your own leadership about what AI readiness actually requires beyond buying tools
