Special Interest Joint Dinner Meeting: "The AI Paradox: Why Faster Coding Fails Without the Predictable Outcome Model & Blueprint"

04-21-2026 6:00 pm -8:30 pm
Varies

In the age of AI-assisted coding, absolute clarity is your ultimate competitive advantage! Join Coach Nelson to learn the Predictable Outcome Model and a proven blueprint that provides the decision-making clarity needed to make your software delivery outcomes completely predictable and achievable.

We look forward to bringing another Special Interest Joint Dinner Meeting! You will have the opportunity to meet and network with your forums counterparts during this collaborative meeting.

The 6:00 Networking Session will consist of tables for each forum. Each table will feature a facilitated discussion led by one of our Industry Forums or Toastmasters. To ensure balanced seating and a smooth transition into discussions, assignments are being finalized in advance. You will choose your first and second choice for table assignments during registration.

As AI accelerates software development, the greatest risk to your projects is no longer coding time; it is a lack of alignment.

Ingle-NelsonCoach Nelson has spent over a decade leading tech teams, and the root cause of project struggle is consistently the same: a lack of clarity. A shared understanding of the WHY, WHAT, and HOW is the deciding factor between a mediocre group and a high-performing agile team.

This keynote reveals Coach Nelson's Predictable Outcome Model & Blueprint. Originally used to condense a two-year pre-AI development cycles into just three months. This model and blueprint provides the exact decision-making clarity required to guide AI-empowered developers today. By practicing this formula, you will eliminate modern delivery chaos and make your outcomes completely predictable and achievable.

Best Suited For: Project Managers, Scrum Masters, Agile Coaches, and Leadership professionals.

Primary Focus Area: Agile Execution, Stakeholder Alignment, and Predictable Software Delivery.

Key Takeaways: 

  • Master the Outcome Formula: Practically apply the equation (Outcome = WHY + WHAT + HOW) to drive initiative success.
  • Transform Team Dynamics: Discover how absolute clarity elevates teams from mediocre to high-performing.
  • Bridge the Gap: Seamlessly translate high-level vision into actionable Initiatives, Epics, Features, and Stories.
  • Maximize AI Efficiency: Prevent the rapid build of the wrong software by providing developers exact, strategic and tactical direction.

"You’re Doing the Work… So Why Aren’t You Moving? How to Turn Certification into Career Growth with PMI" by Noel Ransom-Washington

You’re putting in the work.
You’re attending meetings.
You may have even earned your PMP.

So why does it feel like your career hasn’t moved the way you expected?

This session is designed for project management professionals at every stage of their journey—from those considering certification to those who are certified, experienced, and wondering what’s next.

Many professionals believe certification alone will unlock new opportunities. Others have years of experience but feel stuck in execution roles without clear direction for growth. The reality is: career progression doesn’t happen automatically—it requires strategy.

In this interactive keynote, Noel Ransom Washington walks participants through the real evolution of a project manager and introduces a practical framework for using PMI as a career accelerator. Attendees will identify where they are today, understand what may be holding them back, and learn how to intentionally leverage PMI resources, relationships, and opportunities to move to their next level.

Whether you are just starting out, newly certified, or ready to transition into leadership, this session will give you the clarity and direction to take your next step with confidence.

This session is for anyone asking, “What should I be doing next?”—no matter where you are in your project management journey.

Learning Objectives

  • Identify their current stage in the project management career journey
  • Understand how to maximize the value of certifications such as PMP
  • Recognize common career plateaus and how to break through them
  • Apply strategies to move from execution to strategic influence
  • Leverage PMI resources to accelerate career growth
