How to Build Human-Centric Organizations in the Age of Algorithms

Phanish Puranam
Buying Options
Paperback / Hardback
Amazon

As a species, our superpower is the ability to organize ourselves in flexible ways to pursue a variety of goals. But organizations are not just a means to achieve goals; they are also communities of connection, meaning and shared purpose, the natural habitat of homo sapiens. Balancing the goal-centric and human-centric aspects of organizations has always been hard, but digitalization, and in particular rapid developments in Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms can make it harder. This book outlines a vision for how to navigate the digitalization of organizations in a way that improves their goal-centricity while preserving or enhancing their human centricity.
