————–<\/h2>\n

I\u2019m delighted to share that I have been invited to be a keynote speaker at Agile Trends S\u00e3o Paulo 2026<\/strong>, one of Brazil\u2019s leading conferences on innovation, artificial intelligence, agility, management, and product development.<\/p>\n

The event will take place in S\u00e3o Paulo on August 31 and September 1, 2026<\/strong>, bringing together leaders, managers, practitioners, and teams interested in turning innovation into practical organizational results.<\/p>\n

During the conference, I will present the keynote:<\/p>\n

Teams Still Matter: Agile in the Age of AI<\/h2>\n

Artificial intelligence has profoundly changed how work gets done.<\/p>\n

Today, we can generate ideas, documents, analyses, backlogs, prototypes, presentations, and code in minutes.<\/p>\n

But producing more does not necessarily mean learning more, making better decisions, or creating greater value.<\/p>\n

In this keynote, I will explore how organizations can benefit from AI without losing strategic clarity, collaboration, critical thinking, shared learning, and focus on outcomes.<\/p>\n

I will connect these challenges with practices such as Team OKRs, Product Discovery, Lean Inception, and Delivery<\/strong>, showing why they remain essential\u2014not despite AI, but because of it.<\/p>\n

As generating artifacts becomes easier, aligning people, challenging assumptions, making choices, and learning together become even more important.<\/p>\n

New book launch<\/h2>\n

Agile Trends S\u00e3o Paulo will also mark the official launch of the Portuguese edition of my new book:<\/p>\n

Teams Still Matter<\/strong>
Human Direction, AI Acceleration, and the Future of Product Work<\/em><\/p>\n

The central idea behind both the book and the keynote is simple:<\/p>\n

\n

AI expands individual capability.
Teams turn that capability into direction and results.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In-person workshops in Brazil<\/h2>\n

Before Agile Trends, I will also facilitate three in-person workshops in Brazil:<\/p>\n

August 25 \u2014 S\u00e3o Paulo<\/strong>
Strategy to Outcomes: From Strategy to Results<\/strong><\/p>\n

August 26 \u2014 S\u00e3o Paulo<\/strong>
Teams Still Matter: Practical AI for Product Teams<\/strong><\/p>\n

August 27 \u2014 Rio de Janeiro<\/strong>
Strategy to Outcomes: From Strategy to Results<\/strong><\/p>\n

These workshops are designed for leaders and teams who want to move beyond the AI productivity conversation and explore how strategy, collaboration, product work, and AI can work together in practice.<\/p>\n

I look forward to reconnecting with the Brazilian community and sharing this new chapter of my work.<\/p>\n
