The AI Workflow Clinic: Fix One Broken Process
The Village Workspace, 7173 S. Havana St. , #600, Centennial, CO, US>> Join us at Colorado Startup Week for a collaboration between Human-centered AI & Sumaiya Shrabony <<
AI doesn’t fail at your organization because of the tool. It fails at the handoff. Join us for a hands-on 90-minute clinic for the people responsible for making AI actually land at work, not for people who already know which tool to use.
⚠ RSVP on Luma → https://luma.com/axihh5li. 35 seats available; a waitlist will follow. Meetup RSVPs are welcome but do not reserve a seat.
What you’ll do
Map one real workflow across trigger, judgment, handoff, and trust event. Then assign the AI role step by step, not workflow by workflow. Then target the training at the handoffs, not the software. Three failure patterns the session names: volunteer bias, the trust event, and the handoff gap.You leave with a one-page Workflow Adoption Map you built yourself that you can rerun on any workflow at your organization next week.
Who this is for
Operators, program leads, founders, consultants, HR and L&D. No coding, no prompt-writing, no tool demos. Nothing to bring.Format
→ 4:00 to 4:30 PM · Networking, food, drinks. Arrival window for the after-work crowd.
→ 4:30 to 6:00 PM · The workshop, including a 25-minute open clinic where volunteers put a real workflow on the wall and get it diagnosed live.Speaker

Leadership Circle
Cherry Creek, 50 S Steele St, Denver, CO, USAgile & Lean Leaders:
We are a peer community of senior technology leaders—spanning product, operations, agile coaching, and engineering leadership—who seek to learn, grow, and exchange ideas beyond our day-to-day environments. Our members are Directors to C-level, all leading technology and software teams in complex, fast-moving organizations who value people over things.
As Agile & Lean Leaders, we embrace both meanings of the term:- Leaders who apply Agile and Lean principles to guide teams and organizations through change with adaptability, efficiency, and continuous improvement.
- Leaders who shape the future of Agile & Lean leadership itself—mentors, thought leaders, and contributors to the evolving body of knowledge.
Our purpose is to:
- Connect with other senior technology leaders who navigate similar strategic and executive challenges.
- Learn from diverse perspectives—drawing on Agile, Lean, and other leadership models to tackle the real-world problems we face.
- Advance leadership thinking by developing, sharing, and potentially publishing new insights and strategies.
- Support each other as mindful, intentional professionals, leading with knowledge, calm, and clarity in high-stakes environments.
- Explore Lean principles alongside Agile to drive efficiency, eliminate waste, and improve flow in technology-driven organizations.
By engaging with this group, we strengthen our ability to lead transformational change, influence at the executive level, and shape the future of Agile and Lean leadership in technology.
We meet in person on a monthly basis near the Cherry Creek area, skipping December. Members are asked to commit to attending a minimum of four events per year.
