Every company has a knowledge problem. Insights are scattered across Notion, Slack, Google Drive, and Miro, and people waste time either searching for what they need or recreating work that already exists. It’s frustrating and inefficient. Before Christmas, I led a team at Elsewhen to build a GenAI PoC to tackle this. We used RAG and an agentic framework to pull together past project insights, policies, and templates. The vision wasn’t just a smarter search engine but a tool that empowers teams by creating personalised project materials, surfacing insights, and embedding AI into daily work. Imagine an AI that: 🔹 Flags risks early by recognising patterns from past projects 🔹 Auto-fills templates to kick off new work faster 🔹 Suggests workflow improvements based on real usage Key takeaways from our Sprint 0 📌 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐥, 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐛𝐢𝐠 – A focused first step gave us momentum and clear next moves. 📌 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐢𝐬 𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 – Bringing in DevOps & design early shaped a better outcome. 📌 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰 𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐤 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐞  – Speed vs. security vs. real business impact is a constant trade-off. As with many side-of-desk projects, progress was slow with competing priorities, it took nearly a year from idea to PoC... But perseverance is paying off. Sprint 0 alone has given us valuable insights, and momentum is building for the next phase. This isn’t just a blue-sky AI concept but a practical, tangible step toward an AI-powered tool that truly enhances how teams work. I wrote more about this in my latest Mind the Product article, link in comments. I'm interested in hearing how other people are tackling similar problems. #KnowledgeManagement #AgenticAI #Innovation #EnterpriseAI

Yesterday, I spoke at LeadDev London Meetup on how Multi-agent systems are redefining software engineering & why engineering leaders are vulnerable to this shift 👇 For years, the industry has pushed tech leaders further away from the tech itself. More people management, less system design. More coaching, less technical decision-making. That mindset has always been risky, but with GenAI, it's even more of a big risk now. Engineering leaders who can’t engage in deep system design, architecture, and AI-driven decision-making will struggle as the industry evolves. Many are doubling down on soft skills and people-focused management because it’s familiar, but that won’t protect them from the fundamental shifts happening right now. AI isn’t just changing the tools we use; it’s changing how we build software. Multi-agent systems, AI-first development, and new architectural paradigms will reshape the engineering cycle. Leaders who don’t stay close to the technology will wake up to a world where their skills no longer match what’s needed. #GenAI #AI #SoftwareEngineering #MultiAgentSystems #TechLeadership #EngineeringManagement #AIEngineering #FutureOfWork #LeadDev #SystemDesign #SoftwareArchitecture #AITransformation
