Scaling Your AI Program with Citizen Developers (Guest: Ian Barkin)

What’s the BUZZ? — AI in Business

What if your next big innovation didn’t come from your IT department, but from a non-technical team member empowered to create AI-driven applications?
In this episode, host Andreas Welsch and guest Ian Barkin (Entrepreneur, Investor, and Author) explore the transformative potential of citizen development and its role in breaking down barriers to digital transformation.

We dive into how low-code and no-code platforms are enabling non-technical experts to build impactful applications, filling critical gaps in business processes. Together, we tackle pressing questions:

• How can businesses unlock the untapped potential of citizen developers to drive innovation?
• What does effective governance look like to prevent shadow AI from going rogue?
• Why is it essential for IT and business leaders to collaborate on citizen development initiatives?

You’ll also discover Ian’s 4G framework for managing citizen development programs and gain practical insights into bridging the gap between IT and business to achieve scalable AI success.
