Rolling out AI tools is easy. Adapting your org’s systems, policies, rituals, and culture to truly benefit and keep up? That takes deliberate effort. It’s time to update the playbook.

Rolling out AI tools is easy. Adapting your org’s systems, policies, rituals, and culture to truly benefit and keep up? That takes deliberate effort. It’s time to update the playbook.

In this talk, Maria Gutierrez shares what you should be paying attention to in order to successfully enable teams to thrive with AI, beyond just adopting the tools. Drawing from her experience leading an AI enablement program at Personio, she explores how core engineering expectations around shipping impact, engineering mastery, and team development are evolving, and what that means for your role as a leader.

You’ll hear real-world stories of operational friction and how her team is tackling these challenges by building a practical, adaptable enablement playbook that creates clarity, empowers teams, and drives momentum.

If your team is experimenting with AI but you still adjusted your operational practices and ways of working, this session will help you lead the shift.

Key takeaways

  • Learn how to build a practical enablement playbook to drive cultural change, align cross-functional teams, and develop AI capability across your org, not just in isolated pilots
  • Anticipate and address operational blockers like budget, procurement, security, and policy misalignment that can stall adoption and impact
  • Own the change as a leader by shaping the environment where AI adoption becomes a long-term advantage, not just a one-time tool rollout
