Human Leadership for Humane Technology

This book explores the relationship of natural and artificial intelligence in our rapidly evolving world. It does so anchored in an innovative multidisciplinary framework and the premise that society is a composition of multiple dimensions, with individuals (micro), communities (meso), countries (macro) and planet (meta) in the collective sphere, and individuals themselves as multidimensional beings (aspirations, emotions, thoughts, sensations). This perspective is applied to analyze the implications of our transition into a phase where online and offline realms are increasingly intertwined. Special attention is given to the influence of all pervasive technology on our perception of the self and society. The central message is that we must learn to harness Agency amid AI, which entails double literacy of artificial and natural intelligence.

Analyses ever-changing individual and collective transformation processes in leadership Illustrates practical examples of (in)direct applications and impacts of a unique, holistic worldview Offers a rare selection of assorted perspectives ranging from field workers to policy makers, from thinkers to doers
