Mathew Witte has sat in every seat at the strategy-execution table: frontline operator, hands-on technology implementer, executive buyer, and software CEO. That rare, full-circle vantage point built his central thesis: most organizations don't have a strategy problem or an execution problem. They have a gap between the two, and that gap is where profitability, service, and risk quietly erode. He calls this dynamic the Execution Paradox™, and closing that gap is what allows all three to improve at once, rather than forcing leaders to trade one for another.

He built that view over nearly two decades leading warehouse and delivery operations for a Fortune 500 manufacturer, where he ran a network of 50+ distribution centers, 2,000+ employees, and a $200+ million budget supporting more than $5 billion in annual sales, then guided the business through a top-to-bottom performance reset. He later took the CEO seat at the largest division of a global supply chain optimization company, where he reset performance across sales, consulting, and customer success and tripled historical EBITDA.

Today he is Founder of CatalystSC Partners, where he helps leadership teams close the strategy-execution gap and turn intent into operating reality. He serves on the University of Georgia Supply Chain Advisory Board and is the author of the forthcoming book The Execution Paradox, releasing October 2026.

A dynamic, energizing speaker, Witte is as comfortable challenging a boardroom of executives as he is engaging a classroom of students, moving fluidly between strategic and tactical conversations. His talks draw on real turnarounds, not theory, to show audiences why digital transformation so often can hit its stated targets, yet still fail.

I'm Ashok, a Cloud platform engineer at GPR, a robotics/ autonomous vehicle positioning company. I'm building our cloud platform end to end: networks, clusters, pipelines, databases, and the tooling that holds them together, with AI coding agents as my only teammates.

Here's what I find remarkable: a few years ago, what I'm doing would have been impossible for a single engineer. Modern infrastructure tooling and AI pair-programming have quietly moved that line, and I don't think our industry has absorbed yet what that means for team size, cost, and who gets to build platforms at all.

We are actively working on shipping this to production in coming months.  The next biggest challenge we are eager to solve and that in itself could be second half of the story: one engineer can now build a platform, but how does one engineer operate it at scale?

This is my first conference talk.

Mykhailo Naumenko is building production systems for autonomous and public transportation.

At BitCtrl Systems, he worked on ABSOLUT II, a Level 4 autonomous shuttle project in Germany, developing key parts of the Technical Supervision system used to support live autonomous vehicle operations. His work brings together real-time vehicle telemetry, environment models, video streams, maps, and 3D visualization into an operational control room where human supervisors can understand vehicle state, assess exceptional situations, and support safety-relevant maneuver workflows.

Beyond autonomous driving, Mykhailo took product and engineering responsibility across five of seven functional domains in SIAS ÖV, BitCtrl’s public-transport software platform, and contributed to distributed data infrastructure connecting vehicles, backend systems, and operational applications through real-time event pipelines.

His engineering focus is the part of distributed systems that becomes difficult in the physical world: stale and out-of-order data, unreliable connectivity, event consistency, command safety, high-frequency visualization, and designing software operators can trust when the underlying system is imperfect.

His work spans TypeScript, React, Python, Kafka, MQTT, ROS 2/DDS, and Three.js, with a broader focus on autonomous systems, real-time distributed architectures, and human-in-the-loop operations.

Mykhailo is also a WeAreDevelopers speaker, sharing engineering lessons from building software where digital state directly affects decisions about physical machines.
