AI That Works: A Pragmatic Guide for Service Management Leaders 

Turn everyday service management into an engine of intelligent flow. 

AI is redefining how service teams operate, cutting resolution times by up to 50%, automating 70% of routine requests, and freeing talent for higher-value work. 
But success doesn’t begin with a grand AI strategy. It begins by solving real service challenges: faster triage, continuous coverage, unified knowledge, and actionable insights. 

This practical guide shows how to use Atlassian Jira Service Management and Rovo to: 

  • Automate repetitive requests and reduce backlog
  • Extend coverage without expanding headcount 
  • Surface answers instantly across systems 
  • Predict and prevent recurring issues 
  • Deliver insights leaders can act on without analyst support 

Written for ITSM and service management leaders, this ebook translates AI potential into measurable outcomes you can activate today.

TBM Conference 2025: Strategy, spend, and execution, rewired for impact 

Miami, Florida | November 10–12, 2025 

The 2025 TBM Conference brought together leaders who are reshaping how enterprises manage technology, optimize investment decisions, and accelerate value. Over three days, we engaged in deep conversations about connecting strategy, spend, and execution into a single system that drives measurable business outcomes.

Our team hosted sessions across TBM, cost optimization, AI-driven decisioning, and modern operating models. We explored how CIOs, CFOs, and transformation leaders are aligning financial governance, portfolio management, and architecture to move beyond incremental improvements and build connected, high-velocity enterprises.


What we explored at TBMC 2025 

The evolution of TBM inside a modern operating model — Sessions focused on how TBM now anchors the economic intelligence layer of the Enterprise Operating Model, enabling real-time visibility, smarter trade-offs, and funding that adapts as priorities shift. 

AI’s role in accelerating financial and operational performance — Leaders discussed how AI enhances forecasting, strengthens investment decisions, and reduces the lag between planning and execution. The message was clear: AI-powered financial operations set the pace for enterprise agility.

Closing the orchestration gaps that stall transformation — Breakout discussions highlighted the friction points that slow value flow—siloed portfolios, outdated funding cycles, architectural constraints—and how connected TBM practices help enterprises scale impact faster.

Real stories from enterprise practitioners — Our sessions covered practical examples of how organizations modernized financial governance, improved cross-functional alignment, and strengthened ROI visibility while advancing their operating model maturity.

Scaling AI with Purpose: How a Superannuation Leader Orchestrated 1100% Growth

The Starting Point

When we partnered with a leading superannuation organization, they had begun identifying AI opportunities but needed a strategic path forward. Early discovery and PoC initiatives were underway with strong internal enthusiasm, but scaling beyond isolated success required structure. Leadership set a bold ambition to lead with AI, and needed a structured approach to get there. The strategy centered on increasing AI literacy and empowering teams to identify high-value opportunities, while managing concerns around role changes and alignment through thoughtful change facilitation.

Barriers to Scale

Initial AI use cases had delivered measurable value, amplifying skills and saving time. However, without a clear roadmap, adoption risked becoming fragmented and inefficient. The General Manager of Technology recognized this and urged leadership to create a scalable, hands-on onboarding model that would enable broader learning and enterprise-wide participation. Strong thought leadership was already present, but momentum could stall without a cohesive, cross-functional strategy to harness it.

How We Activated Adoption

We partnered with the client to orchestrate a scalable adoption model through a structured approach designed for adaptive execution:

  • Defined commitment levels, secured executive sponsorship, and established a realistic roadmap timeline.
  • Designed short, high-frequency workshops (30-minute sessions, 3–4 times weekly) totaling around 4 hours to build momentum and maximize engagement.
  • Activated continuous feedback loops to keep stakeholders aligned and enable real-time iteration.
  • Partnered directly with internal teams to foster cross-functional collaboration and ensure change enablement remained central to the rollout.

A Roadmap for Scalable Intelligence

We delivered an AI adoption roadmap with a phased rollout strategy and embedded support systems:

  • A clearly articulated AI adoption journey tailored to team readiness and use case maturity.
  • Success metrics and learning paths personalized for various business units.
  • Phased onboarding that acknowledged different teams would progress at different speeds.
  • Strategic communication and change facilitation to drive alignment, reduce resistance, and accelerate buy-in.

Business Impact at Scale

Our orchestrated approach drove measurable, enterprise-wide outcomes:

  • AI platform engagement surged 1100%, transforming adoption across the enterprise.
  • Identified and activated adoption champions to lead from within.
  • Established a Community of Practice (CoP) to enable continuous learning and cross-functional collaboration.
  • Surfaced a dozen new business use cases, several of which advanced through a tech lean canvas process.
  • Implemented three AI use cases within six months, backed by dedicated technical resources.
  • Published a formal AI policy, aligning execution with governance and strategic goals.

Laying the Groundwork for What’s Next

This engagement shows how an intelligent adoption strategy unlocks enterprise-scale AI impact. By balancing bold vision with practical execution, the organization accelerated AI maturity, built trust, and laid the groundwork for what’s next.

Looking to scale AI with precision and purpose? Let’s orchestrate what’s next.

In partnership with:

 

 

In a Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous (VUCA) world, Business Agility—the ability to sense and respond to change faster than the rate of change itself – is the key to winning. In an AI powered world of change, sustained success requires more than planning—it demands continuous learning. Enterprises need intelligent systems that connect strategy to execution, enable rapid feedback, and align teams around the flow of value.

Enterprises must not only rapidly test whether their strategies are working, but also whether their current structures and value streams are aligned with the evolving needs of their customers. That means learning at every level: adjusting direction, adapting workflows, and reforming how value is delivered—based on insight, not instinct. Accelerated with AI Agents working 24/7, this is the AI Native Enterprise.

You’ll discover how to:

  • Leverage AI-native insights in ServiceNow to fuel real-time decision-making, optimize investments, and drive enterprise visibility.
  • Use SAFe’s Lean Portfolio Management to create flow, establish guardrails, and foster fast learning at every level of the organization
  • Connect strategy to delivery through digital workflows and operationalized feedback loops that enhance governance, adaptability, and speed.
