Garbage In, Faster Blitz
Business, Nonfiction
Date Published: April 19, 2026
AI doesn't remove the need for human alignment. It amplifies it.
From the co-author of the #1 Amazon Kindle Bestseller Connecting Goals to Impacts and Outcomes comes a provocative companion: a book about why AI makes human conversation skills more essential — not less.
Organizations laid off Scrum Masters and Agile Coaches. Then they adopted AI. They eliminated the people who create alignment — and bought a technology that makes alignment more critical than ever.
The result? Garbage in, faster.
This book was written in collaboration with Claude AI by Anthropic. The entire manuscript was generated in under 60 seconds. But those 60 seconds only worked because of the hours of structured conversation that preceded them — and the twenty years of expertise behind those conversations.
The process of writing this book proved its thesis.
What you'll learn:
• Why "agile is dead" is the wrong diagnosis — and what actually failed
• Communication Debt: the invisible liability destroying your organization
• Why AI multiplies clarity AND confusion equally — and you choose which
• How VERB + NOUN syntax creates infrastructure for both humans and AI
• Why "context engineering" is Structured Conversations by another name
• The five conversations AI can never have for you
• How to become a Conversation Architect — the role organizations need most
• Five conversations you can have Monday morning with no new tools
Who this book is for:
• Scrum Masters and Agile Coaches wondering what comes next
• Product Managers whose AI tools produce beautiful, meaningless artifacts
• Executives who invested in AI but aren't seeing results
• Anyone who suspects that better conversations might be the answer
A companion to Connecting Goals to Impacts and Outcomes: Harnessing Structured Conversations for Customer-Driven Value Delivery. That book is the complete toolkit. This one is the argument for why that toolkit is now existential.
Structure the Conversation. Deliver the Outcome.
