An accessible survival guide that shows leaders how to build cultures of trust and productivity in a changing world
The Five-Year Century: Bold Leadership and Accelerated Outcomes in the Age of AI is an incisive wake-up call that shows you what's holding you back from transformative change, and how you can break down those barriers to achieve unprecedented results. Written for a world that's experiencing demographic collapse and stagnant productivity, this book addresses the adapt-or-die situation that many organizations are facing today. Written by Silicon Valley veterans Mihir Shukla and Nancy Hauge, it combines irreverent storytelling with battle-tested frameworks for surviving turbulent times and coming out on top, ready for a new, tech-enabled future.
Inside, you'll discover four key myths that prevent organizations from harnessing the potential of AI--incremental change, human exceptionalism, hierarchical management, and technology servitude. The Five-Year Century busts each one, showing you through vivid case studies how you can work with technology to build resilient, human-centered workplaces that will continue to achieve results, no matter what comes next.
- Uncover the reasons behind workforce shortages, struggling corporate cultures, and stagnant business results
- Lead through digital transformations and culture shifts to create human-centered workplaces
- Learn how AI implementations can empower people to achieve more by enhancing resilience and adaptability
- See how forward-thinking organizations around the world are breaking free from old, industrial mindsets--and how you can too
This isn't another book about the philosophy of AI--it's an actionable resource for transforming demographic and economic pressures into catalysts for meaningful legacies beyond the boardroom.
