Technology advances are making tech more... human. This changes everything you thought you knew about innovation and strategy.

In their groundbreaking book, Human + Machine, Accenture technology leaders Paul R. Daugherty and H. James Wilson showed how leading organisations use the power of human-machine collaboration to transform their processes and their bottom lines. Now, as new AI-powered technologies like the metaverse, natural language processing, and digital twins begin to rapidly impact both life and work, those companies and other pioneers across industries are tipping the balance even more strikingly towards the human side with technology-led strategies that are reshaping the very nature of innovation.

In Radically Human, Daugherty and Wilson show this profound shift, fast-forwarded by the pandemic, towards more humanβ€”and more humaneβ€”technology. Artificial intelligence is becoming less artificial and more intelligent. Instead of data-hungry approaches to AI, innovators are pursuing data-efficient approaches that enable machines to learn as humans do. Instead of replacing workers with machines, they're unleashing human expertise to create human-centred AI. In place of lumbering legacy IT systems, they're building cloud-first IT architectures able to continuously adapt to a world of billions of connected devices. And they're pursuing strategies that will take their place alongside classic, winning business formulas like disruptive innovation.

These against-the-grain approaches to the basic building blocks of businessβ€”Intelligence, Data, Expertise, Architecture, and Strategy (IDEAS)β€”are transforming competition. Industrial giants and startups alike are drawing on this radically human IDEAS framework to create new business models, optimise post-pandemic approaches to work and talent, rebuild trust with their stakeholders, and show the way towards a sustainable future.

With compelling insights and fresh examples from a variety of industries, Radically Human will forever change the way you think about, practise, and win with innovation.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

The book receives high praise for its fresh perspective on integrating technology with a human-centred approach in business. Influential leaders and thinkers commend its non-linear framework for innovation and sustainability, describing it as essential reading for leaders. It is lauded as a guide to maximising human potential while navigating the rapidly transforming business landscape.
