About Jeremy Schinzel

Strategic, independent thinking, and mission-driven AI Consultant with a background in organizational design, enterprise IT management, and information security, which not only enables a unique value proposition for organizations but also translates into an interesting shared understanding when it comes to generative and agentic AI as well as the rapidly evolving Network-First Future of Work. The outcome is an evolution of linear value chains into a Value Network construct within a Networked Organization to enable AI-powered solutions as we collectively enter the Post-Knowledge Work Era.

   Full-time or Fractional AI Consultant with a proprietary focus on the Metabolic Health of Organizations via modern Organizational Design concepts and the adoption of a Network-First Future of Work* Specialize in ServiceNow AI Platform Strategic Advisor & Independent Consultant for Now Assist, SecOps & CMDB - all within the context of the ServiceNow Operating Model, and Common Service Data Model (CSDM)Guiding Principles of My Thought LeadershipCreator of the vCIO Framework: I developed a value-driven Collaboration, Intentions, & Orchestration (vCIO) framework for the Post-Knowledge Work Era. As we enter the Intelligence Age, our reliance on the traditional People, Process, Technology (cogs of the modern industrial era) construct has become an inertia barrier; the vCIO framework focuses on the Metabolic Health of the organization and the parallels to the human body, making it very relatable for all recipients.From Linear Value Chains to Adaptive Networks: Advocate for transitioning the industrial-era value chain to a more resilient, enabling Value Network. By applying Graph Theory, Systems Thinking, and Network Science, organizations can foster emergent relationships to co-create economic, intrinsic, and contextual value for all value network participants.The Future of Agentic AI: In the near-term, I foresee that the System of Agents construct will give rise to Services as Software offerings. This will not only transform organizational structures but also disrupt the current SaaS model, traditional service providers, and the entire software industrial complex.
