How to Decide What to Automate Before the Engineer Guesses

Hosted by John P. Dentico, Ed.D., AIMP

In this video

What you'll learn

See the costly step most teams skip

Recognize why capable teams keep solving the wrong problem and what that actually costs once the specification closes.

Watch the wrong diagnosis get accepted

Watch a room settle on training or adoption, then see what gets permanently encoded as a result.

Leave knowing the missing step

Walk away clear on the one diagnostic move that has to happen before any system, tool, or plan hardens the wrong rules.

Learn how consequence-driven simulations makes learning last

Watch how decisions produce consequences across sessions, turning diagnosis into something you feel and remember.

Why this topic matters

Something is missing. The system is in. Training is done. The team is capable. Yet the same workarounds keep appearing. That gap is not an adoption failure. It is a diagnostic failure. Planning answers questions already asked. This session asks whether they were the right ones. What never gets stated becomes the default, and the default becomes permanent. This session shows the questions most teams skip.

Leadership Simulation Designer. Author. Podcast Host. Strategic Thinking Coach.

Most people think leadership is a position you're granted. It isn't. It's a process you run, and like any process, it can be learned, practiced, and made your own.

I do not teach this from a slide deck. I build simulations you step inside, grounded in how adults actually learn, by doing, deciding, and living with the results, so you walk out having led, not just heard about it.

More than thirty years building leadership capacity, one simulation workshop at a time, at the FBI Academy, Johns Hopkins, The City of San Jose, and the World Bank Group. Co-author of the National Strategy to Combat Identity Theft for the U.S. Department of Justice.
