Get Agile #36 | Mapping Strategy and Why AI Won't Replace Developers | Simon Wardley
Wednesday, 29 October, 2025

In this episode, Tomasz Wykowski from ProCognita talks with Simon Wardley - creator of Wardley Mapping - about how mapping helps leaders make sense of rapid change, why AI won't replace developers, and what strategic mistakes organizations are already making. Simon explains how mapping strategy reveals patterns of technological evolution, why efficiency often creates more complexity, and how AI will increase the demand for skilled engineers rather than eliminate it. They also explore the long-term consequences of not hiring juniors, the cultural impact of large language models, and the need for open and transparent AI development. Recorded during the AgileByExample Conference in Warsaw.
