Celebrating Bestseller Status + New Live Session on the Agentic Operating Model
From Amazon Bestseller to building the next layer of strategy — here’s what’s ahead
Hi,
Two weeks ago, Agentic Strategy reached a huge milestone:
It became an Amazon Bestseller in TWO categories. 🎉
This is more than just a number — it’s proof that leaders everywhere are ready to transform how their organizations think, learn, and act.
Thank you for being part of this movement. Whether you’ve been reading, sharing, or joining the live sessions — you are helping build a smarter, agentic future.
Coming up is the 6 part live series on The Agentic Operating Model, including:
Part 1 – Why Companies Fail with AI Agents
Part 2 – The Evolution: From Digital to Cognitive Transformation
Part 3 – The Agentic Operating Model: Core Architecture
Part 4 – People and Culture in an Agentic Enterprise
Part 5 – Value Creation and Strategic Impact
Part 6 – Implementing and Scaling AOM
Substack Live - Part 1: Why Companies Fail with AI Agents
📅 When: Friday, September 12th, 6 PM CET / 12 PM ET
🎙 Where: Live on Substack
Goal: Build urgency and shared understanding of the current challenges.
Duration: 1 hour
Core Theme: Most companies fail to extract value from AI because they treat agents as tools, not as part of a thinking system.
Content Breakdown:
The state of AI adoption today: dashboards, pilots, and stalled projects.
Symptoms of failure: babysitting agents, fragmented initiatives, no strategic alignment.
The root cause: legacy operating models and “tool-thinking.”
Key case examples (success vs. failure).
Audience takeaway: Recognition of why their current approach isn’t working.
Interactive element: Live poll on where participants believe their organization currently stands.
This session is free to attend live, but replays are only for paid subscribers.
Why This Matters
The Agentic Operating Model is the core framework that powers everything in my book and newsletter.
It’s the blueprint for moving beyond traditional org charts — and it’s exactly what top companies are starting to implement.
If you’ve been following The Strategy Stack for a while, this is the perfect chance to see it all come together live.
