ITIL at an Inflection Point: Why Change Is Necessary Feb 19th 2026 Presenter: David Cannon, Senior Director of ITIL, PeopleCert Register Today ITIL has long provided a common language and set of best practices for service management, but the environment it operates in has fundamentally changed. Digital products, AI, automation, and value-stream thinking are reshaping how organizations deliver and consume services. The question is no longer whether ITIL is relevant, but how it must adapt to remain effective. In this webinar, we introduce ITIL (Version 5) and participants will gain clarity on how ITIL’s principles still hold strong, where mindset and practice shifts are required, and how to apply ITIL in a way that supports modern operating models rather than constraining them. This session is designed for professionals who believe in ITIL’s value - and want to ensure it continues to drive meaningful outcomes in a rapidly evolving landscape. By attending this webinar, you earn 1 Continuing Professional Development (CPD) point. The slide deck will be available the morning of the webinar The recording of the session will be available post webinar #AI and Automation in ITSM #David Cannon #Digital Operating Models #Enterprise Service Management #Future of ITIL #ITIL and AI #ITIL Best Practices #ITIL Framework #ITIL Principles #ITIL Transformation #ITIL v5 #ITIL Version 5 #ITIL Version 5 Launch #ITIL Webinar #ITSM Academy #ITSM Evolution #ITSM Trends #Modern IT Service Management #Service Management Strategy #Value Stream Management #Webinar Facebook Email Print Linkedin
