The New Rules of CS Capacity Planning: Scaling Your Team in the AI Era

Speakers
About This Event
Two CS experts. One hour to rebuild the headcount model you've been using. And replace it with one that actually accounts for AI.
Why Attend
The capacity models most CS teams still rely on were built before AI started absorbing meaningful chunks of what CSMs actually do. The math isn't wrong, it's just answering the wrong question.
When AI changes what your team spends time on, the real question becomes: how many humans do you actually need, what should they be focused on, and how do you make that case to leadership without guessing? That's what this session is about.
Nina Wilkinson and Linnea Olson of Scale Up Customer Success bring both the strategic lens and the operational specifics. You'll leave with a framework for identifying where AI creates genuine leverage in your CS motion, a clearer model for approaching headcount conversations with finance and the C-suite, and the tactical steps to start putting it into practice.
Who This Is For
CS leaders, CS operations professionals, and anyone responsible for how their team is staffed and structured. If you've been asked to do more with less and aren't sure whether AI is actually part of the answer — or how much — this is the hour.
