Adaptive IT Workforce Takes Center Stage at Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Las Vegas as AI Value Hinges on Workforce Readiness
With AI initiatives expanding across the enterprise, organizations are under increasing pressure to translate investment into measurable value. Yet many are finding that workforce readiness is lagging behind the pace of technological change. At Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Las Vegas, June 9 – 11 at the Bellagio, Info-Tech Research Group will feature sessions focused on how IT leaders can build more responsive teams, modernize workforce strategies, and prepare their organizations to operate effectively in agentic environments.
LAS VEGAS, March 25, 2026 /CNW/ - AI adoption is accelerating, but many organizations are finding that organizational capabilities are not keeping pace with the demands of more autonomous, AI-driven operations. IT leaders are being asked to support new workflows, decision models, and operating structures without fundamentally changing how teams are designed or how capabilities are developed. At Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Las Vegas, June 9–11 at the Bellagio, Info-Tech Research Group will bring together CIOs and senior IT leaders to examine how workforce readiness must evolve to support the shift toward agentic IT.
Info-Tech's insights indicate that while organizations are expanding AI initiatives, many are still relying on traditional workforce models that were not designed for continuous adaptation. Training programs, role structures, and team environments often lag behind the pace of change, limiting how effectively teams can absorb and apply new capabilities into practice. The firm notes that as agentic systems reshape how work is executed, workforce adaptability is becoming a defining factor in whether AI investments translate into sustained business value.
"Organizations can't train their way out of the challenges created by AI at scale," says Info-Tech Research Group's Chief Research Officer, Gord Harrison. "What's required is a shift in how teams are structured, how capability is developed, and how organizations assess their ability to adapt. At Info-Tech LIVE in Las Vegas, we'll focus on how IT leaders can build workforce readiness, strengthen execution, and prepare their organizations to operate effectively in autonomous environments."
