GleekOps Co-Founder will share a practical playbook for building an operating system for AI-enabled work
The value of Glean comes from connecting it to the workflows where teams lose time, decisions slow down, & knowledge gets trapped. That is how orgs reduce manual coordination and improve execution.”— Tim GlombDENVER, CO, UNITED STATES, August 19, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — GleekOps, a firm that specializes in AI transformation and implementation for SMBs and enterprise clients, announced today that its Co-Founder, Tim Glomb, is scheduled to speak at Glean:GO 2026—Glean’s premier enterprise AI conference—scheduled for August 26–27 at Fort Mason in San Francisco. The event will also be available virtually at no charge.
“Success in the next era of workplace AI will hinge on tangible outcomes, not on the volume of experiments started or tools rolled out,” stated Elisa DeFoe, CEO and Founder of GleekOps. “Companies that tie AI spending to measurable gains in speed, capacity, quality, and decision-making will be the ones that secure a lasting edge.”
Glomb’s presentation, titled “Escape pilot purgatory with Tim Glomb: A practical playbook for AI momentum,” will tackle an increasing dilemma for business executives: why simply offering broader access to powerful AI hasn’t reliably resulted in measurable operational improvements.
While much of the discussion around “AI for work” has centered on advancing pilots to full production, Glomb will contend that pilot success is just a piece of the puzzle.
The bigger opportunity lies in constructing an operating system for AI-enabled work—one that weaves together workflows, organizational knowledge, governance, accountability, technology, employee habits, and measurable business results across the entire enterprise.
“Pilot purgatory is a symptom, not the disease,” Glomb said. “If every AI initiative has to independently fight through questions of ownership, governance, knowledge access, adoption, and measurement, the organization has not built the infrastructure for transformation. The real opportunity is to create an operating system that allows the business to continuously redesign how work gets done.”
During the session, Glomb will present a concrete framework for pinpointing high-value workflows, assigning clear business ownership, defining proof of value, and establishing explicit “kill-or-scale” criteria for AI efforts. He will also cover the organizational skills that need to grow alongside the technology, such as workflow redesign, governance, enterprise context, AI literacy, and platform readiness.
The objective, Glomb argues, is not merely to get more AI into production. Instead, it is to equip organizations with a repeatable method for re-architecting work across different functions.
“The mistake leaders can make is treating AI like another software deployment,” said Glomb. “AI becomes transformational when organizations start with the work itself. Where are people spending time? Where does knowledge get trapped? Where do handoffs slow the business down? Which decisions can happen faster? Technology is one layer. The operating model around it is what determines whether AI actually changes the business.”
GleekOps partners with organizations across AI readiness, transformation, enablement, and implementation. The firm maps existing workflows and systems, spots opportunities for AI-driven redesign, sets up governance and operating structures, promotes employee adoption, and deploys platforms such as Glean—along with the agents, integrations, and enterprise knowledge connections needed to support new ways of working.
That methodology mirrors a wider evolution in how workplace AI investments are assessed. Rather than focusing mainly on pilots initiated, licenses issued, or tools adopted, GleekOps urges organizations to track changes in the underlying work, including added employee capacity, reduced cycle times, eliminated manual processes, and improved business results.
“AI transformation becomes real when it changes the economics, speed, or quality of a workflow,” Glomb said. “The question leaders should be asking is not how much AI they deployed. It is what changed in the business, and whether they now have the ability to repeat that change across the enterprise.”
Glean:GO 2026 unites AI leaders, builders, operators, customers, and partners to explore AI adoption, agents, governance, enterprise knowledge, technical architecture, and business outcomes.
