Top interviews from this week

📍 Weekly Exclusive Interviews
This week’s Dispatch zooms in on how B2B consulting leaders are rebuilding delivery around structured methods and AI-native workflows. Dustin Domerese’s data shows why firms are asking “how do I actually do this?” and turning to frameworks like SPEAR (Surveillance, Performance, Excellence, AI) to reduce project failure and tame messy implementations.
Ashley Moser’s Human-in-the-Loop work highlights AI and people operating inside the same process, where human judgment is captured and fed back into systems for compounding learning rather than bolted on at the end.
Ravi Shankar’s AI agents insights then surface both the upside and risk of deploying thousands of agents at once: live situational awareness creates leverage, while poor guardrails invite rogue behavior.

In the realm of B2B Consulting statistics 2026, insights from industry expert Dustin Domerese provide a firsthand look at the challenges and solutions within the sector. His data, collected across numerous engagements, highlight the critical factors influencing project success and failure.
“Companies coming and literally saying, how do I do this?” — Dustin Domerese, CEO, Dynamic Consultants Group. Dustin's insights reveal the critical importance of adopting a structured methodology like SPEAR (Surveillance, Performance, Excellence, AI) to navigate the complexities of technology implementation.
Ashley Moser, a seasoned expert in AI integration, provides firsthand data on Human in the Loop AI practices. Her insights are drawn from direct applications in enterprise settings, making them invaluable to understanding the impact of AI in 2026.
“AI and people working together inside the same process natively woven together throughout the task.” — Ashley Moser, Expert, MelodyArc. Ashley Moser emphasizes the importance of capturing human judgment within AI processes. This approach not only enhances immediate task efficiency but also contributes to long-term organizational learning.
Ravi Shankar's insights into AI Agents Consulting statistics 2026 provide a first-hand look at the industry's trajectory. With data collected across numerous engagements, Ravi highlights the exponential growth and potential pitfalls associated with AI agents.
AI agents need live situational awareness to function effectively. — Ravi Shankar, Expert, Denodo. The data indicates a significant shift towards AI agent integration in business operations. As organizations like McKinsey implement thousands of agents, the potential for increased efficiency is substantial. However, challenges such as rogue agents remain a concern.
Three signals stand out across B2B consulting, HITL AI, and agents. Structured methodologies like SPEAR are becoming non-negotiable as clients move from “AI curiosity” to “show me the path to value.” Human-in-the-loop patterns are quietly becoming the default, making human expertise part of the model, not a workaround. At the same time, AI agents are shifting from experiments to infrastructure, forcing firms to design for monitoring, context, and control from day one.
Last month, 373,338 founders and global executives tuned in to the Software Oasis™ podcast network to learn. For the first time, you can stand in front of that influential audience—plus our community of top-3% consulting, SaaS, and creator founders and
executives—through a single sponsorship opportunity.
Taken together, these conversations point to a 2026 playbook where winning firms combine clear methods, embedded human judgment, and well-governed agents in a single operating system.
P.S. Reply with which frontier you are wrestling with most right now—delivery frameworks, HITL design, or AI agents—and a future Dispatch can go deeper on practical examples.
