Curtis Hibbs
Curtis Hibbs is an enterprise transformation and AI-adoption executive. He builds the governance, workflows, and adoption systems that connect strategy to delivered outcomes, then puts measures in place to establish whether those outcomes are being achieved. His focus is the design of work: how people, AI, information, and decisions come together to deliver value.
At Boeing, Curtis served as Chief Agile Evangelist and Tech Fellow. He founded and led the company-wide Lean+Agile transformation across a 5,500-engineer function, extending software engineering improvements into hardware disciplines where delivery required coordination across the whole system. His broader career spans aerospace, defense, financial services, healthcare, and technology startups.
Curtis spent nearly six years at PMI advancing the Disciplined Agile body of knowledge and co-creating Disciplined Agile Next with Joshua. He is a Founding Fellow and former Board Member of the Lean Systems Society, and author of The Art of Lean Software Development. Earlier in his career, he invented real-time closed captioning for broadcast television.
