In this episode of the Facilitation Lab podcast, host Douglas Ferguson interviews Jeff Chow, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Miro, about where friction is showing up inside product teams as AI reshapes how work gets done. Jeff describes how PMs prototyping in high fidelity, designers coding, and engineers orchestrating agents are collapsing old role boundaries, and argues the underlying tensions — who owns a decision, who gets paged at 2am, how a designer receives feedback — aren't new, just amplified. Much of the conversation centers on decision-making as the real bottleneck: Jeff makes the case that 10x individual output doesn't translate into 10x business results unless organizations can also accelerate cross-functional alignment and cascade decisions with their underlying context, not just their conclusions. He and Douglas dig into Miro's bet that a shared visual canvas — carrying both artifacts and a decision log of why choices were made — is the connective layer that keeps AI-assisted work and human teams moving together instead of fragmenting into isolated single-player sessions. The two also trade observations on viral AI adoption patterns inside organizations, the psychology of design crits applied to AI-generated work, and the early signs of "ephemeral UI" and custom, vibe-coded widgets reshaping what software teams expect to build for themselves.
AI productivity gains may be creating a hidden talent crisis. As senior employees use AI to take on work once assigned to junior staff, organizations risk “experience starvation,” weakening the pathways that build judgment, discernment, and future leaders. Explore how shrinking entry-level opportunities, skills atrophy, and disrupted talent pipelines could create long-term capability gaps, and why leaders need to design developmental friction into AI transformation. Learn how organizations can capture AI’s speed and efficiency without sacrificing the hands-on experience people need to grow into tomorrow’s experts.
Hybrid meetings don't fail because of technology—they fail because they're not designed for equal participation. Learn practical hybrid meeting facilitation techniques that keep remote and in-room participants equally engaged, from creating a shared digital workspace and assigning a dedicated remote-voice role to using structured turn-taking and AI meeting tools effectively. Discover why designing for the remote participant first leads to better collaboration, clearer decisions, stronger engagement, and more inclusive meetings, along with simple facilitation strategies your team can implement immediately without investing in expensive new technology.
