10x'ing Myself and My Team: Leading With Agents, Not Just Using Them
by Andy Ganoe | at Minnebar20 | 9:45 – 10:25 in Bde Maka Ska | View Schedule
Most AI productivity talks focus on one person doing one thing faster. What happens when you're responsible for a whole team and you start weaving agents into how everyone works?
That's where I've been for the last six months. Turning meeting notes into Jira stories. Automating compliance checks. Building tools that work for engineers, QA, product, scrum masters, analytics, and non-technical team members alike. The pattern is always the same, find the thing you do over and over, teach an agent how you do it, and get that time back.
I'll share how I built the tooling, standardized it across roles, and what happened when people started managing workflows instead of just executing them.
This isn't about replacing anyone. It's about giving every person on your team leverage they didn't have before. I'll be honest, the job looks different now. People on my team don't just execute tasks anymore. They orchestrate, review, and decide what ships. If you're a leader trying to scale your team's impact, or someone in a hands-on role wondering why your day suddenly feels different, this is what's working for us right now.
