About
Most stuck AI adoptions aren't failing on technology. They're failing on missing kit.
Your team has the tools. What it doesn't have — before the work starts — are the decisions, the access, the information, and the skills the work actually needs. So it stalls, at every handoff. And everyone blames the technology.
The fix has a name: full-kitting. Assemble what the work needs before it begins, and the work flows. It comes from the science of constraints and flow, and it's what I used to move delivery organizations at Ford, IBM and Cigna-ESI. It works the same for one leader with a mandate and no playbook.
WHO I WORK BEST WITH
• You've been told to "figure out AI for the team" — no playbook, real stakes, a dozen confident voices contradicting each other.
• You're watching decades of expertise get discounted, and you want your judgment working through these tools rather than routed around by them.
• You're a coach, founder or designer whose profession is being redrawn.
HOW I WORK
I find where your work actually stops — usually not where you think. We assemble the kit. Then you watch the change in your own numbers.
You'll also see my production Claude system running live — it holds the context of every project I run, so I can pick any one of them up cold and be working in minutes — and I'll help you build your own, its parts swapped to fit how you work.
I claim only what I've run and measured. That's why my AI practice is a working system I use daily, not a slide deck.
THE RECORD
• IBM — Kanban rollout, 80,000 people, four continents, delivered on time. The executive sponsor: "What started in 'little' Costa Rica is now a global initiative truly transforming GTS — and that is because of you."
• Ford — first large-scale SAFe release: twelve workstreams synchronized to one release in nine months.
• A $100M program in Alberta, recovered from near failure.
• Cigna-ESI — 1,200-person bottom-up Kanban adoption.
• Travelers, Schwab, Morgan Stanley — and smaller firms, Trudell and Solid Light, where change moves faster.
• Founder: DirecTouch, 1993 — one-to-one marketing years before the market wanted it; the personalization that is now the air we breathe. Merck development agreement, co-authored Kodak patent.
• Accredited trainer: SAFe SPC, AKT, ATT, KCP. TameFlow Fellow.
You know the technology adoption curve. I've spent my career in innovator territory — four era transitions: analog to digital, mass communication to one-to-one, waterfall to iterative, now human-only work to AI-assisted. Each time early, because flow tells you what's coming before the market says so. My edge is 20 years of disciplined peer-counseling practice — deep listening — and a designer's eye for making complex things legible.

What happens when you start
You tell Minton your goals. They see exactly what you want to work on before session one.
You meet within days. Minton reviews your application and books your first session, usually within a day or two.
You leave with a plan. Concrete next steps and a weekly rhythm from your very first week.
