The AI Forecast: Data and AI in the Cloud Era Women Leaders in Technology: AI Agents Are Your New Team– Now What?
In this special Women Leaders In Technology episode of The AI Forecast, Wayfound.ai CEO Tatyana Mamut, PhD, makes a bold claim: AI is already acting like a workforce—and organizations are unprepared for what that means.
From econometrics to anthropology to leading roles at Salesforce, AWS, an d Nextdoor, Tatyana shares how her background shaped a fundamentally different approach to leadership. Drawing on her unconventional journey, she explains why agentic AI is forcing leaders to rethink how they manage technology, shifting from systems to a focus on teams, culture, and governance.
Together, Tatyana and Paul share their perspectives on:
- Why agentic AI needs to be managed like human teams
- The rise of multi-sapien workplaces (humans + AI agents)
- How culture and leadership frameworks shape AI outcomes
- Why unstructured data drives the most valuable insights
- The role of ethics, law, and governance in controlling AI systems
- Why intellectual curiosity beyond technical skill defines great leaders
This conversation goes beyond technology; Tatyana also reflects on leadership and representation in tech, challenging assumptions about opportunity, and exhibiting why diverse ways of thinking are critical in an AI-driven world.
