ServiceNow Process Intelligence | Don't Automate the Chaos
Most organizations deploying AI agents can’t answer a basic question: is it actually working? Not whether the agent runs — whether the process actually got better. In Episode 3 of our process mining and process intelligence series, Damian Pascale and Roz Parpia join host Bobby Brill to go deep on what it actually looks like to run process intelligence with AI in the mix — from the AI Visibility Gap, to a four-step framework for finding the right AI use cases, to what “closed loop intelligence” really means once agents are governing agents. This episode’s answer to the recurring question: don’t automate the chaos. Find it, understand it, improve it — then, and only then, streamline it. CHAPTERS 0:00 Introduction — Damian Pascale & Roz Parpia 0:56 “Don’t automate the chaos” — where the phrase comes from 2:25 Process mining vs. process intelligence — what actually changed 4:21 The linchpin: where AI fits across all three layers 5:36 The AI Visibility Gap — what most organizations are missing 6:56 A real example: when agent metrics look great, but quality doesn’t 8:13 The four-step framework: Find, Understand, Improve, Streamline 11:27 Where AI comes into streamlining — sizing the right use cases 13:19 Does the order of the four steps actually matter? 14:04 Task Mining — the human side process mining can’t see 15:19 A concrete example: the procurement approval bottleneck 16:31 The closed loop — six steps to continuous improvement 17:30 Why you can never skip the ‘detect’ step 18:05 Measuring real impact with the compare feature 19:25 Governance and AI Control Tower, explained simply 20:46 Mining the agents themselves — a third layer of visibility 21:36 Closed loop intelligence — the three layers, confirmed 22:48 Day one: what to do after deploying your first agent 23:38 Closing thoughts from both guests 24:26 Wrap-up IN THIS EPISODE • Why an AI agent doesn’t fix a broken process — it just runs the broken process faster • The real difference between process mining and process intelligence: three layers in one • The AI Visibility Gap: why almost every customer has deployed an agent, but few can prove it’s working • A real customer example — an agent that improved response time but quietly increased the reopen rate • The four-step framework for AI-ready process improvement: Find, Understand, Improve, Streamline • The 2–15 minute rule (and the 3–9 minute sweet spot) for sizing the right AI agent use cases • Why skipping straight to automation is exactly how you end up automating the chaos • Task Mining and the procurement approval example — 45 minutes across four systems, invisible to process mining alone • The six steps of the closed loop, and why the ‘detect’ step is the one everyone skips • Using the compare feature to measure whether an AI agent actually helped — or just moved the problem • AI Control Tower, explained simply — and how it becomes a third layer of process intelligence • Closed loop intelligence: the agent, the governance, and the agent’s own behavior — all observable, all improving GET STARTED If you’re a ServiceNow customer, you already have access to free evaluation projects — no license needed. https://www.servicenow.com/au/products/process-mining/get-started.html https://www.servicenow.com/docs/r/now-intelligence/process-mining/process-mining.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVrU0TQ7ldM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLKROYqnc10 #ServiceNow #ProcessMining #ProcessIntelligence #AIAgents #AgenticAI #TaskMining #AIGovernance #AIControlTower #WorkflowAutomation #DigitalTransformation #ContinuousImprovement #ClosedLoopIntelligence #ServiceNowPodcast #EnterpriseAI #DontAutomateTheChaos See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

ServiceNow Process Intelligence | From Sticky Notes to Process Maps in Five Minutes
Is process mining just Six Sigma with better software? Two former Lean Six Sigma consultants — now Product Managers at ServiceNow — answer that question. The answer is more interesting than you’d expect. Tomas Galle (Six Sigma Black Belt) and Roz Parpia (Green Belt) join host Bobby Brill to trace process intelligence from factory floors and sticky-note whiteboards to process maps generated in under ten minutes from data you already own. They cover the real cost of the old way, non-conformance, the ServiceNow Playbooks feature, Task Mining, and the question every AI agent deployment should be asking but usually isn’t: did the process actually get better? CHAPTERS 0:00 Introduction — Tomas Galle & Roz Parpia 2:02 Is process mining just Six Sigma? 4:13 The belt system explained — Black Belt, Green Belt, and the punchline 4:58 Manufacturing observation: what process improvement looked like before 7:51 The real cost of the old way — six figures, six months, one process 8:46 Customer reaction: ten years of work, solved in ten minutes 9:03 Where ServiceNow sits in the Process Intelligence market 10:56 Annual physical vs. wearable — continuous vs. snapshot 13:13 Conformance checking and the happy path 14:10 Non-conformance: what it is and why everyone should care 16:58 Static statistics vs. analysis on the move 17:05 Playbooks: responding to non-conformance in real time 18:54 How to get started today — free evaluation projects, no license needed 20:26 Task Mining: the human layer process mining can’t see 22:00 You’re already sitting on a goldmine 22:53 Closing thoughts IN THIS EPISODE • Why “that’s just Six Sigma” is actually the right reaction — and what it’s still missing • Frederick Taylor’s stopwatch, the Gemba walk, and how the factory floor became the IT service desk • Why a single process improvement engagement used to cost six figures and take up to six months • The Gartner Magic Quadrant for Process Intelligence — and Roz’s candid take on where ServiceNow really stands • The wearable vs. annual physical: why continuous process mining beats the yearly audit • Conformance checking and the happy path — what it means when your process deviates • Non-conformance explained with a real change management example (87% vs. 98% CAB approval) • How the ServiceNow Playbooks feature turns detection into real-time correction with one click • Task Mining: what people do in Outlook, Teams, and Excel that never appears in your process map • How to start mining your own data today — no license required, no IT admin needed GET STARTED If you’re a ServiceNow customer, you already have access to free evaluation projects — no license needed. https://www.servicenow.com/au/products/process-mining/get-started.html https://www.servicenow.com/docs/r/now-intelligence/process-mining/process-mining.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVrU0TQ7ldM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLKROYqnc10 TAGS #ServiceNow #ProcessMining #ProcessIntelligence #SixSigma #LeanSixSigma #TaskMining #AIAgents #WorkflowAutomation #DigitalTransformation #ContinuousImprovement #NonConformance #Playbooks #ServiceNowPodcast #EnterpriseAI #ProcessImprovement #GembaWalk #ConformanceChecking See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Cost of Building the Right Thing | AI, Speed & Discernment at ServiceNow
Engineering teams are building ten times — even a hundred times — more than they could two years ago. That's a win, but one not without challenges. Because the cost of building the right thing has climbed exponentially. In this episode of the ServiceNow Insights podcast, host Bobby Brill sits down with three leaders who are living this tension from three distinct angles: the content and design leader who first spotted the productivity math problem, the design VP pushing for discernment over speed, and the research lead keeping the human at the center. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ IN THIS EPISODE ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ DAVID HOARE — Group VP, Digital Content & Design, ServiceNow ANAND THARANATHAN — Group VP, Product Research & Insights, ServiceNow DANTLEY DAVIS — SVP of Design, ServiceNow ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ CHAPTERS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 0:00 Introduction & Guest Intros 1:13 David: The AI Philosophy — ChatGPT as genuine inflection point 3:02 David: Economic viability — why AI unlocks what was never possible before 3:12 Anand: Three-person startups scaling to $100M+ 3:45 Dantley: From 3D Studio Max to Jarvis — AI as human superpower 6:29 Anand: The customer north star hasn't changed 7:10 David: Engineering's survival problem — the 100x production gap 8:32 David: Andrew Ng's PM-to-engineer ratio + the cost of building wrong 9:40 Dantley: Nine concepts in an hour — design velocity and discernment 12:04 Dantley: The hip-hop tastemaker — slowing down as part of the process 14:20 David: Content governance — the fox guarding the hen house 16:21 Anand: Trust and the human-AI system 17:20 Dantley: AI surprise — UI tech stacks, feature completeness & hidden tech debt 20:21 18-Month Close — Anand, Dantley & David ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ KEY TAKEAWAYS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ • Engineering is the first function to see massive AI productivity gains — but that creates a gap every other function has to survive • The cost of building has dropped. The cost of building the wrong thing has climbed exponentially • Discernment is the bottleneck — not speed. Nine concepts in an hour still needs a tastemaker • AI quality is only as good as the content signals it receives — governance is not optional • The customer north star hasn't changed. AI just changes how fast you can move toward it • Customer value is the only metric that matters.

Being AI Native at ServiceNow
What does it actually mean to be AI native? Not the buzzword — the real thing. Host Bobby Brill brings together seven ServiceNow experts across six conversations for a complete picture of what AI native thinking, building, and working looks like right now. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHAT WE COVER ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ DI LE — AI Ethicist & Human-Centered AI Strategist, ServiceNow The clearest definitions you'll find anywhere of responsible AI, ethical AI, and human-centered AI — and why all three are required if you're going to do this right. Plus: why AI native means AI as the operating system, not a feature. DR. ALAINA BEAVER — Global Head of Accessibility Customer Engagement, ServiceNow ServiceNow built the world's first AI model accessibility checker with the Global Accessibility Awareness Day Foundation — and open-sourced it on GitHub for free. Because responsible AI native behavior means holding AI itself accountable. ANAND THARANATHAN — Research Leader, ServiceNow A framework from cognitive science every AI builder needs: use, disuse, misuse, and abuse. The four modes of AI interaction — and why proper use is the only one that delivers. TARA BOGAVELLI & KATRINA STANKIEWICZ — Voice AI Research Team, ServiceNow How ServiceNow built a rigorous open-source evaluation framework for voice agents from scratch — and what cascade failures, transcription errors, and prosody failures actually sound like in practice.

Pragmatic Use-Case-Driven Data Governance with Jason Doerr
Jason Doerr has spent years watching governance programs undermine themselves by cataloging everything without a use case, naming data stewards who have nothing to actually do, and building central teams that become blockers instead of enablers. In this episode, he walks through what pragmatic governance actually looks like: start with use cases, give stewards real work to action on, and let the central team set principles rather than police behavior. He also digs into PADU (Preferred, Acceptable, Discouraged, Unacceptable) as a practical roadmap framework, how LLMs can accelerate semantic layer creation without generating vanity metrics, and why the governance operating model is shifting toward agentic management ... whether the governance community is ready for it or not.

Data Catalyst³: Governance × Change Management × Data Fluency w/ Bob Seiner
Bob Seiner has spent decades in data governance, and in this episode he joins Juan and Tim to unpacks his new framework, Data Catalyst Cubed, which multiplies data governance by change management and data fluency. Miss any one of them, and you get zero. The problem is that leadership has never treated behavior change as part of the governance mandate, and most data programs have never connected with the change management expertise that already exists inside their organizations.

AI Governance Isn't Compliance. It's About Humans with Victoria Gamerman
Most organizations are treating AI governance as a compliance checkbox. Victoria Gamerman argues it's the gateway that finally forces organizations to confront the human side of AI adoption. In this episode, Victoria breaks down why the POC-to-operationalization gap is so hard to close, why people, process, and data each carry more human weight than most leaders acknowledge, and what "AI-ready data" actually means and a reminder that AI isn't a technology problem. It never was. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's Friday: Juan and Tim rant about AI, Agents, and the Uncomfortable Truth About Data's New Center of Gravity
Juan and Tim's Friday rant covers a lot of ground, from Juan's TED takeaways on AI's unprecedented speed and what it means for humanity, to the uncomfortable shift data teams need to make: work and decisions are the point, not pipelines and gold layers. They dig into what Medallion Architecture 2.0 looks like (feedback loops, insights to action, agent governance), why organizational design theory applies directly to agent swarms, and what library science can teach us about the future data stack. The thread running through all of it: the humans who thrive in this moment won't be the ones who build the most, but the ones with taste. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Think Like a Librarian: Why the Reference Interview Is the Framework Data Teams Are Missing with Jenna Jordan and Amalia Child
Data teams spend enormous energy building pipelines, platforms, and governance frameworks but often skip the most fundamental step: truly understanding what people are actually asking for. In this episode, Juan and Tim sit down with data librarians Jenna Jordan and Amalia Child to explore why library science may be the missing lens for data work. At the heart of the conversation is the reference interview, a structured technique librarians use to uncover a user's "true information need," which almost never matches the first question they ask. From establishing trust and listening without judgment, to asking open-ended questions and verifying whether the need was actually met, the reference interview offers a rigorous, repeatable framework for anyone serving data users. If you've ever wondered why data projects deliver less value than expected, this episode will reframe the problem entirely and give you a practical toolkit to start closing the gap.

The Void Between Data and Decisions with Pete Williams
There's a gap at the heart of most organisations and data hasn't filled it. Pete Williams, an experienced data leader, has spent years watching companies build sophisticated data capabilities, only to see insight stall before it reaches action. In this episode, we diagnose why: organisations still make decisions along traditional vertical lines, while data sits in a horizontal layer that was never given real authority. AI doesn't solve this misalignment, it exposes it! Pete makes a compelling case for why fixing this structural void is the defining challenge for data leadership today.
