Most AI implementations fail not from technical issues, but from team resistance and poor change management. Scott combines 30 years of coding experience with proven people skills to mentor your developers through the entire process, ensuring both technical success and team unity.
The story
Most development teams hit a wall when trying to implement AI workflows. They have the technical skills but struggle with the human side – managing resistance, coordinating across departments, and maintaining team cohesion while everything changes.
Scott Howard Swain takes a different approach. With 30 years of technical experience and decades studying communication psychology, he works directly alongside your team as what he calls a “player-coach.” Instead of handing over complex systems and walking away, he mentors your developers through the entire process.
His secret? He founded the Practical Empathy Practice Group in 2015, conducting over 650 meetings with 2,100+ members. This isn’t just feel-good theory. It’s practical experience in managing group dynamics that translates directly to keeping development teams unified during AI integration.
Scott built EmpathyBot.net in 2018 – an advanced cognitive empathy AI chatbot he still trains today. This hands-on AI development experience, combined with his people skills, means he understands both sides of the equation.
Your team doesn’t need another consultant who drops off documentation and disappears. They need someone who can code alongside them while navigating the inevitable human challenges that surface when workflows change.
Scott turns technical complexity into business results by addressing what most AI implementations ignore – the human element that makes or breaks adoption.
