You bought the AI tools - your team barely uses them π«£
The question isn't whether to adopt AI π ββοΈ
β It's how: how you hire when AI writes half the code, how you keep quality from slipping, what to do with the engineers quietly resisting it.
π That, and plenty more, is what we're digging into at TechLead Conf London this October - with VPs and heads of engineering from startups to Big Tech who've already hit these walls and figured out what works.
This year's focus - AI adoption, in practice. Two tracks, hard-won lessons, and an Unconference you help shape π
β‘ Getting AI into your team's daily workflow β for real
β‘ Hiring engineers when AI writes half the code
β‘ Keeping code quality from slipping as tools spread
β‘ Change management that actually beats AI adoption resistance
β‘ Scaling from a few AI power users to the whole org
β¦and plenty more on the website:
