Beyond The Bots

A live conversation on AI-proofing your people for 2026.

AI’s about to blow up your bench. If you’ve been avoiding the uncomfortable questions about what AI could mean for your org chart in 2026, now’s your chance to rip off the Band-Aid

Andy Lin

Provoke CEO Andy Lin reckons the Matrix has a lot to teach us about AI: the agents look unbeatable, but the real superpower is still humanity.

Mark Orttung 06

Projectworks CEO Mark Orttung was studying AI before most firms had email - and knows exactly where it still falls short.

Provoke CEO Andy Lin has gotten a 24-month head-start on this stuff, and I can’t wait to pick his brain on:

His 2026 Org Chart — Where he’s cut, who he’s retrained, and the skills gaps he’s still confident he’ll be hiring humans for a year from now.

Skills That Matter — The stuff Andy’s insisting every consultant in his team learns right now, his longer-term hunches about the skills he’ll need six months from now, and the tough lessons he’s learned about change — and those who resist it.

Selling the Human Edge — How Andy’s still pitching — and winning — software projects, by charging a premium for human value rather than shying away from it.

Hiring in an AI World — How Andy’s deciding who gets a spot in the org chart, when “headcount” doesn’t equal capacity anymore.

I can’t wait for this conversation — Andy has always been the first to admit he doesn’t have all the answers, and he’s made a ton of mistakes I can’t wait to learn from. Come spend 45 minutes in the AI deep end, with a software consulting CEO who’s wrestling with the same prickly questions you are.
