What if Agile’s rituals are just band-aids for human chaos? This episode digs into how AI code assistants could automate your stand-ups, collapse team roles, and force us to reinvent collaboration around value, not ceremonies.
What happens when you let AI agents run an entire agency with zero human oversight? A Carnegie Mellon experiment shows it collapses in chaos—proving we still need human judgment, simple solutions, and even the quirks (think R2-D2’s beeps) that make smart machines truly effective.
In this episode, I talk about why we never roll out untested tools on live client work—how a stable arsenal of accelerators, along with dedicated “innovation playgrounds,” keeps projects on time, ensures predictability, and preserves trust.
Discover how AI-driven design-to-code tools are slashing handoff times to seconds, so UX teams can ditch stale wireframes and dive into real user research for deeper insights.
Tune in to see how faster delivery and strategic problem-solving can transform your workflow—and your products.
Discover how “prompt chaining” turns AI into your co-pilot—handing off a baton of bite-sized tasks (summarize notes, extract themes, draft sections, add flair) to transform chaos into a polished proposal. Banish blank-page panic and unlock a repeatable, creativity-boosting workflow.
After years fine-tuning my four-pillar manifesto—trust, clarity, visibility, consistency—for frictionless digital delivery, I explore how AI isn’t a detour but a turbocharger for those same principles. Tune in for no-fluff tactics on harnessing AI to help your team move faster, smarter, and with genuine ownership.
When AI tools are everywhere, the real edge comes from razor-sharp thinking and your own custom AI toolkit—not the fanciest license. Learn how to craft, refine, and chain prompts with your unique context into repeatable workflows, so machines handle the busywork and you focus on breakthrough insights.
AI can supercharge your workflow—but knowing when to stop is just as important. In this episode, Matt shares two key signs it’s time to take back control and finish the job yourself. Listen in for a smarter way to work with AI, not for it.
AI is making it easier than ever to blur the lines between design and development—but is that always a good thing? In this episode, Matt explores the risks of moving fast without the right foundations. Tune in for a thought-provoking take on how teams should adapt in the age of AI.
Matt explores how AI is reshaping the roles within delivery teams—and why deep thinking may soon outweigh hands-on making. He challenges the notion that design or development roles are becoming obsolete, highlighting the irreplaceable value of strategic designers and senior engineers. It's a fresh take on what high-impact collaboration looks like in the AI era. Listen in to see where you—and your team—fit in this evolving landscape.
AI is redrawing the boundaries between design and development, and Matt’s here to help you navigate the shift. With tools like Google Stitch and Figma Make, designers are coding and developers are shaping interfaces. But this isn’t role confusion—it’s a new kind of collaboration. Matt lays out a vision for faster, clearer, and more co-authored delivery. Don’t miss this conversation if your team is rethinking how work gets done with AI in the mix.
AI is transforming work—just like the internet once did. In this episode, Matt explores four emerging AI user archetypes: Bystanders, Conversationalists, Automators, and Orchestrators. Where do you fit, and how can you evolve? Let’s dive into the AI adoption curve and what it means for your future.
The AI landscape is rapidly changing, and as business leaders, so must we.
Our latest talk breaks down the AI journey into manageable stages:
Bystander.
Conversationalist.
Automator.
Orchestrator.
Whether you're just starting or looking to revolutionize how your team works, there's a path forward. Learn how to transform fear into action and curiosity into expertise with our step-by-step insights. Listen in and find out where you and your team are on the AI-adoption curve.
Tried going AI-first this week. Spoiler: it’s brilliant… until it isn’t.
I sat down with Nick Warren to unpack what happens when you actually try to run your daily workflow through AI.
No filters. No hype. Just two humans navigating hallucinations, rabbit holes, and the occasional win that saves a week’s work.In this chat:
If you’re serious about working with AI (not just tweeting about it), give this a listen. (We’ll try to improve the audio next time!)
What’s the real impact of AI on the workforce?
Matt Goddard and Nick Warren delve into it, discussing opportunities and challenges as AI reshapes our careers. As the saying goes, history doesn’t repeat… but it does rhyme! #AI #Technology #FutureOfWork
Nick and Matt delve into the necessity of comprehensive discovery processes and the pitfalls of solely relying on MVPs for customer insight. Learn about the creation of North Star documents and guiding design principles that ensure alignment and mitigate risks in product development. Don't miss this comprehensive guide to balancing business objectives with customer-centric design!
In The Shawshank Redemption, Andy Dufresne teaches us that sometimes, we have to crawl through the… mud to come out clean. That’s exactly how I feel about Discovery—the most overlooked (and resisted) part of digital development.
But here’s what happens when you skip it:
The team builds something that works but doesn’t solve the real problem.
The project is delivered, but the client isn’t happy—and they don’t come back.
The opportunity to build trust and a long-term partnership is lost.
When we fight for Discovery, we unlock the real value of a project.
If your team is constantly fighting interruptions and struggling to deliver, this one’s for you.
Today I break down how batching communication, setting clear focus time, and making deep work the default transformed our team’s productivity—and how you can apply it to yours.
In our latest conversation, Matt and Nick dive into the critical role of clarity in accelerated digital delivery.
From defining clear processes to handling handovers and feedback, we explore how teams can prevent chaos and drive projects forward. Spoiler: When you double down on clarity, work flows easily through the system, and everyone wins.
Digital projects often stall because potential problems are hidden from view. Our latest article shows why increasing the visibility of our work (and ourselves) leads to:Digital projects often stall because potential problems are hidden from view.
