I am hearing that internal resistance is the #1 barrier for leaders trying to move to an Agentic AI-first organization. Here are my thoughts on the problem and how to address it. The Future Is Agentic; But Resistance Is Real We are standing at a defining moment for organizations: the move to Agentic AI-first operating models is no longer optional. It's an imperative. However, as any seasoned executive knows, introducing even the most promising innovation will hit a wall if your people aren't coming with you. You may already feel it, such as resistance from within, hesitation, delays, and doubts. These reactions are not signs of failure; they're signs of change. And change, if not guided well, quickly breeds fear. But there's a way forward.. Resistance Isn't the Problem; It's a Signal In ADKAR terms, resistance is often a gap in Awareness, Desire, or Knowledge. It isn't enough to unveil a vision of an AI-first future—you need to decode what's blocking your people from embracing it. As a change coach and organizational transformation specialist, I've seen this pattern repeat across industries. Three core fears usually sit at the heart of resistance: 1) Fear of the unknown "What does this mean for me, my team, and our future?" 2) Fear of redundancy or irrelevance "Will AI replace me? Will I still be needed?" 3) Fear of inadequate support "How will I learn what I need? Will I be left behind?" If you're hearing whispers like these or sensing them in the silence, this is your moment to lead, not react.

The barrier isn't budget. It isn't skill. It's mindset. Start with one task. One afternoon. Site: changeenable.com Full case study: DM me #AgenticAI #FutureOfWork #AI #Startups

The orgs that win the next 5 years won't cut headcount with AI. They'll upskill their people, retain institutional knowledge, and give teams superpowers on the work that eats 70% of their week. AI is scary when you think it's coming for you. It's transformational when it's coming for the worst parts of your job.

People are scared of AI because they don't know where they fit. But here's the wrong question: "Who just lost their job?" The right question: "What could your team do if the grinding stuff took 5 hours instead of 5 weeks?" Yesterday I built a full web presence in one afternoon. Here's what happened: 🧵

We think we code 24% faster with AI.. The data says we’re 19% slower. What’s really happening when 90% of Claude Code is written by AI, yet the average developer is actually losing ground? A rigorous new study, by METR, found a massive "Perception Gap": Experienced devs believed they were 24% faster using AI, but they actually took 19% longer to finish the work. In this video, Nate Jones breaks down the divide between "Dark Factories" (teams that have automated the entire execution layer) and everyone else. As @jasonaverbook often says about the Future of Work: Digital transformation isn't about the tools; it's about a complete shift in how we define "labor." The takeaway: If you aren't changing your workflow, the AI isn't a turbocharger—it’s an anchor. lnkd.in/gBuVwacT #ai #workforce #coding #SDLC

Most people don't trust themselves enough to self custody. That's the bottom line. Great UI/UX for self custody hardware wallets have been around since 2017. If you don't believe me, check out these early Videos of a Venmo for Crypto wallet experience. youtube.com/watch?v=KNsbsm…
