From LLMs to AI Agents to Agentic Layers
Time
13.00 - 13.30
Details
The session will open with a short, practical introduction that takes attendees through:
- What an LLM is (and where it helps today)
- What an AI Agent is (and how it differs from a chatbot or copilot)
- What an agentic layer means in an organisational context (coordination, workflows, decision support)
This framing is designed to give everyone a shared language, regardless of technical background. The discussion then anchors AI use cases directly to some core PMO and PM responsibilities, for example:
- Standardisation & Governance – using AI to support consistent documentation,
- Strategic Alignment –prioritisation support and decision framing
- Resource Management – forecasting demand and scenario analysis
- Monitoring & Reporting – automated reporting & exception-based insights
- Risk & Issue Management – early signal detection and cross-project risk themes
Key Features
This Birds of a Feather session will leave you with:
- A clear mental model of LLMs vs AI Agents vs agentic working
- Practical examples mapped directly to PMO and PM responsibilities
- Better questions to ask their own organisations, suppliers, and leadership teams
- Peer insight from others facing similar challenges
