The Future of Leadership in the Age of AI: Preparing Your Leadership Skills for the AI-Shaped Future of Work

by Luka Ivezic, Marin Ivezic

Overview

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is expected to add more to global GDP by 2030 than the current output of China and India, combined. It is set to be the key source of disruption and competitive advantage in the changing economy.

AI-powered automation will transform your organization and your job, too.

It is critical to prepare now for the jobs of tomorrow. The Future of Leadership in the Age of AI shows you that it might be easier than you think.

The transformed economy will need new sorts of executives - motivators, innovators and social experimenters - those that have, paradoxically, developed their distinctly human skills. The Future of Leadership in the Age of AI clarifies those new roles and makes the transition easier.

"A wide-ranging, accessible look at AI-related changes that are coming for virtually every profession in the 21st century." - Kirkus Reviews

"Author team Marin Ivezic and Luka Ivezic present a really interesting work on the future implementations and business predictions of AI, and thankfully it is one which neither glorifies them nor predicts a total apocalypse. Rather, this is a practical and informative guide to what Artificial Intelligence already does for the finance, business and economics worlds, and what it will continue to develop into as technology improves. The narrative tone is professional and clear, delivering straight facts with as little technical jargon and overcomplication as possible. There is a wonderful sense of celebration for the social and creative talents of human beings too, which gives the piece a highly motivational quality overall and shows hope for the future rather than stagnation or replacement..." - Reader's Favorite

Editorial Reviews

2020-05-22
In their debut nonfiction collaboration, Marin and Luka Ivezic, father and son, address the wide range of possibilities and challenges represented by AI.

The authors cite the inroads that AI has made into all aspects of modern life, from the world of investment to the practice of medicine to more mundane things, like everyday finance or automation (self-driving cars, planes that fly and land themselves). They contend that only businesses that have adapted and trained for the inevitable incorporation of AI will survive and thrive. Most likely, there will be no meaningful exceptions: “Even ‘knowledge workers’—engineers, physicians, scientists, lawyers and any other workers who, as business process consultant Thomas Davenport aptly puts it, basically ‘think for a living’—face the likelihood that parts of their current jobs will be automated by AI.” Any reader who’s required in-depth medical diagnostics in the last few years will be able to attest—perhaps uncomfortably—to how extensively this is already true, and likewise, anyone who’s dabbled in investing will know how much of the industry is now conducted by machines. But although the authors here are thorough in their extrapolations of what’s coming, they also seek to reassure their readers. “Are we then headed into a Dark Age where humans will be rendered obsolete?” they ask. “Again, the answer is a resounding, ‘No!’ AI and the other emerging technologies are not a step into a world that says, ‘No humans needed.’ ” The Ivezics expertly articulate the various complex ways AI can mesh with human entrepreneurship, pointing out that human intuition can counterbalance and enhance machine speed and precision specifically because it’s nonquantifiable.

A wide-ranging, accessible look at AI–related changes that are coming for virtually every profession in the 21st century.
