AI First Dev Workflow 2026
11 Principles for Building Change-Resilient Software
AI writes code now. Where does the development team's value lie?
Individual productivity is up, but teams don't feel faster. DORA 2025 found individual task completion rose 21%, yet organizational delivery metrics stayed flat. This book dissects that contradiction and presents 11 principles for redesigning team workflows.
In the business smile curve, software development sits in the middle. As AI accelerates implementation, development teams must understand both upstream (what to build) and downstream (how to deliver). Requirements keep changing — that's why building change-resilient software matters, and why workflows need redesigning at the team level.
