Episode Synopsis

In this episode of D365 Shot First, Ben and Charlie dig into what Dynamics 365 consulting looked like 10 years ago, how it’s evolved today, and what the next decade could fundamentally change for developers, consultants, and end-users.
From the rise of AI and vibe coding to the shift from in-office waterfall delivery to global, remote-first agile teams, they explore the real impact these changes will have on skills, roles, and the pace of project delivery.
More importantly, they dive into the one thing that technology can’t replace: people. As they debate whether AI will accelerate developers or create more clean-up work, they also examine why soft skills, communication, and human connection will become the most valuable part of a consultant’s toolkit in the decade ahead.
🔥 What you’ll learn in this episode:
- How Dynamics consulting has changed in the last decade
- Why AI can accelerate delivery, but still can’t define problems
- The dangers of vibe coding and why consultants may face a “spaghetti systems” future
- The growing importance of soft skills as teams become more remote
- Why future consultants may act as facilitators, problem-solvers, and even “therapists”
- How environmental impact could become part of solution design
- Why the next generation may not be entering tech, and what that means for resourcing
- How end-users could become the consultants of the future
Whether you’re working in Business Central, CE, or Power Platform, this episode helps you rethink the evolving role of the consultant, and why understanding people will matter just as much as understanding the tech.
