Super Human - Dave Asprey

From the creator of Bulletproof coffee and the bestselling author of Head Strong and The Bulletproof Diet comes a plan to bypass plateaus and ‘up’ your game at every age.Dave Asprey suffered countless symptoms of ageing as a young man, which sparked a lifelong burning desire to grow younger with each birthday. For more than twenty years, he has been on a quest to find innovative, science-backed methods to upgrade human biology and redefine the limits of the mind, body, and spirit. The results speak for themselves. Now in his forties, Dave is smarter, happier, and more fit and successful than ever before.In Super Human, he shows how this is level of health and performance possible for all of us. While we assume we will peak in middle age and then decline, Asprey’s research reveals there is another way. It is possible to make changes on the sub-cellular level to dramatically extend life span. And the tools to live longer also give you more energy and brainpower right now.The answers lie in Dave’s Seven Pillars of Ageing that contribute to degeneration and disease while diminishing your performance in the moment. Using simple interventions – like diet, sleep, light, exercise, and little-known but powerful hacks from ozone therapy to proper jaw alignment, you can decelerate cellular ageing and supercharge your body’s ability to heal and rejuvenate.A self-proclaimed human guinea pig, Asprey arms readers with practical advice to maximize their lives at every age with his signature mix of science-geek wonder, candour, and enthusiasm. Getting older no longer has to mean decline. Now it’s an opportunity to become Super Human.

What IF eating the right foods at the right time can actually enhance your fast? What IF how you work out and sleep could trick your body into thinking you are fasting?

What IF all fasts could be created equal?Fast This Way is a compelling read through the latest thinking on fasting and gives readers the manual and toolkit to make the most of their fasts and their personal biology.

Bystrohlaví - Dave Asprey

Vynálezce "Neprůstřelné kávy" (Bulletproof Coffee) a autor bestselleru The Bulletproof Diet přichází s revolučním plánem, jak vylepšit vaši schopnost myslet - a to už za dva týdny. Posledních deset let pracoval Dave Asprey, podnikatel ze Silicon Valley, se světově uznávanými lékaři a vědci, aby odhalili nejnovější a nejinovativnější metody, které by umožnily lidem podávat lepší výkony - tomuto procesu se říká biohacking. Ve své první knize The Bulletproof Diet se Asprey podělil o biohackingové tipy, jak v těle ovládat biologické procesy. V Bystrohlavých vám nyní ukáže, jak použít biohacking, abyste dosáhli bystřejšího, chytřejšího, rychlejšího a odolnějšího mozku. Představte si, že vaše mysl funguje tak jasně a bystře, že - pravděpodobně poprvé v životě - uděláte více práce v kratším čase. Co kdyby vám najednou šly ty nejtěžší věci mnohem jednodušeji? Co kdybyste si byli stoprocentně jistí svou inteligencí a už nikdy nebyli ti, kteří prostě nejsou dost chytří a nemůžou si vzpomenout na něco důležitého. Jak byste se chovali k lidem, kdyby vaše změny nálad, vznětlivost a chutě, které narušují váš den, jednoduše zmizely? V Bystrohlavých nám Asprey ukáže, že je tohle všechno - a ještě víc - možné. Zjistíte, že zavedením jednoduchých změn v životním stylu (neboli "hacků") můžete využít toho, jak funguje struktura mozku, a naučíte se posunout svou mentální výkonnost ještě dál. Asprey kombinuje nejnovější poznatky neurovědy a neurobiologie s přístupem "nic neodkládej" inspirovaným hackery a nabízí program postavený kolem klíčových oblastí mozkového výkonu, který vám pomůže: Dodat mozku přesně to, co potřebuje, aby celý den pracoval co nejlépe. Eliminovat původce vašeho "kryptonitu", který zpomaluje váš mozek - ať už jde o výživu nebo prostředí. Nabít na maximum mitochondrie, buněčné motory našeho mozku, abyste eliminovali chutě a zvýšili pozornost. Zvrátit záněty, abyste ihned dosáhli lepšího výkonu a zůstali bystří a plní energie i ve zralých letech. Podpořit růst neuronů, abyste zrychlili zpracování podnětů a podpořili učení - nastartujete svůj mozek k úspěchům. Aspreyho srozumitelný dvoutýdenní program nabízí detailní plán, jak zvýšit výkon mozku - které potraviny jíst a kterým se vyhnout, jak do vašeho dne zařadit správný druh fyzické aktivity, pravidla detoxu pro vaše tělo i domov, meditaci a dýchání pro dobrou výkonnost, doporučené výživové doplňky pro zlepšení mozkové činnosti a také jak přizpůsobit osvětlení doma i v práci, abyste mozku dodali světlo, které mu prospívá.

Hacknuté tělo - Dave Asprey - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Objevte revoluční způsob v boji proti stárnutí. Dave Asprey trpěl nesčetnými příznaky stárnutí už jako mladý muž, což vyvolalo jeho celoživotní spalující touhu omládnout s každým rokem. Již více než 20 let se snaží najít inovativní, vědecky podložené metody, jak modernizovat lidskou biologii a nově definovat hranice mysli, těla a ducha. Výsledky hovoří samy za sebe. Nyní ve svých 40 letech je Dave chytřejší, šťastnější, úspěšnější a více fit, než kdykoli předtím. Jak se postavit 7 pilířům stárnutí? V audioknize Hacknuté tělo autor ukazuje, jak se i my můžeme stát super člověkem. I když předpokládáme, že vrcholu svého fyzična dosáhneme ve středním věku a následně bude naše výkonnost klesat, autor nám v audioknize na základě svých výzkumů jasně dokazuje, že to vše může být i jinak. Prodlužte svou životnost pomocí nástrojů, které vám dodají více energie. Odpověď na otázku, jak se stát super člověkem leží v Daveových sedmi pilířích stárnutí, které přispívají k degeneraci a nemocem a zároveň snižují náš výkon. Pomocí jednoduchých zásahů – jako je dieta, spánek, světlo, cvičení a málo známé, ale mocné triky od ozonové terapie po správné zarovnání čelistí, můžete zpomalit buněčné stárnutí a posílit schopnost svého těla se samo léčit a omlazovat. Zlepšete kvalitu svého života v každém věku díky směsi vědecko-geekovských zázraků, kterými vás autor dostane. Stárnout už nemusí znamenat úpadek. Nyní je příležitost stát se super člověkem! Dave Asprey je zároveň autorem našeho naprostého bestselleru roku 2022, audioknihy Game changers, kterou jste si zamilovali. Z audioknihy: Mitochondrie, naše buněčné elektrárny, které se vyvinuly ze starodávných bakterií, mají stejný základní cíl, který má i každá úspěšná forma života – zůstat naživu. Lidské tělo má minimálně biliardu (tisíc bilionů) mitochondrií, které v něm kmitají, a v každé z nich běží program, který říká: „Neumírej“. Může se pak člověk divit, že se mu nechce umřít? Tyto prastaré bakterie nás nutí k chování, které udržuje maso našeho těla naživu a schopné reprodukce. Těmto typům chování říkám tři S: strach (bojovat, nebo utíkat před věcmi, které by nás mohly zabít), strava (sežrat všechno, co vidíme, abychom měli energii bojovat s tím, co by nás mohlo zabít, nebo před tím utéct) a nakonec pochopitelně sex, jímž se rozšiřuje příslušný živočišný druh. Předpokládám, že těmito třemi prioritami strávíte hodně času, co? Všechny formy života – od bakterií přes octomilky až po tygry – sdílejí tytéž základní instinkty, ale člověk je jediný druh, který má dostatečně velký mozek na to, aby byl schopen dělat dlouhodobá rozhodnutí, která podpoří náš cíl nezemřít. Je ironií, že právě naše instinkty, které nás mají udržet naživu, nám často brání dělat rozhodnutí, která jsou dlouhodobě prospěšná pro dlouhověkost. Například naše přání nezemřít hlady nás nutí cpát se přílišným množstvím cukru, abychom si rychle doplnili energii, což nás z krátkodobého pohledu sice drží naživu, ale z dlouhodobého pohledu jen zvyšuje naši šanci na smrt. Pokud chcete mít dokonale fungující tělo a mysl i dlouho po dosažení věku, když už reprodukce není možná (což je okamžik, kdy se pro své mitochondrie v podstatě stáváte zbytečnými), je potřeba si osvojit postupy, které zabrání tomu, abyste se stali kořistí těch základních instinktů, které vás nutí přemýšlet v krátkodobém horizontu.

Smarter Not Harder - Dave Asprey

World-renowned biohacker and bestselling author Dave Asprey reveals how to maximize your well-being with the minimum effort, by taking control of your body’s operating system.If you want to lose weight, boost your energy, or sharpen your mind, there are shelves of books offering myriad styles of advice. If you want to build up your strength and cardio fitness, there are plenty of gyms and trainers ready to offer you their guidance. What all of these resources have in common is they offer you a bad deal: a lot of effort for a little payoff. Dave Asprey has found a better way.In Smarter Not Harder, the proven master of biohacking exposes the surprising secrets of your body’s operating system, or its “MeatOS.” That system is naturally designed to be lazy, which is why sweaty exercise routines and rigid diets produce such limited effects. Dave shows us how to hack the MeatOS and make it do what we want it to do, turning it from obstacle into ally. The key to achieving optimum wellness, he reveals, isn’t about doing more, it’s about doing less—exercising and eating smarter, not harder, and making the body’s built in laziness work for you.Smarter Not Harder is not a diet nor a fitness plan. It is a system of targeted biohacks aimed at upgrading your metabolic, neurological, and epigenetic systems. Packed with practical, accessible information on better eating; smart workouts that give you more strength and energy in less time; and strategic therapies to reduce stress and boost resilience—Smarter Not Harder will show you how to achieve lasting health in less time.

O knize řekli: „Dave Asprey využívá svůj rafinovaný a vědecky založený styl k tomu, aby inspiroval a umožnil čtenářům, aby ze sebe vydali to nejlepší. V Game Changes sdílí nejlepší tipy, které se naučil a prožil během své osobní cesty k pulzujícímu životu.“ — William Sears, autor The Dr. Sears T5 Wellness Plan

In this book, I included my early sketches, storyboard, notes about the editing process, and a behind-the-scenes look at how I painted the cover. In this new edition, George and Harold, who are now older, have gone back to add full color and edit their spelling mistakes. I''m excited that more readers will discover one of my favorite superhero characters I''ve created. He may be small in size, but he makes a big impact.

In The Last Book Written by a Human, tech entrepreneur Jeff Burningham delivers a profound and urgent exploration of what it truly means to be human in the age of AI—challenging us to embrace wisdom, love, and deep human connection as we navigate an uncertain future alongside machines.What does it mean to be human? At a time when AI is rapidly changing the way we live, work, and think, this may be the biggest question we face.

With raw honesty, Burningham shares his personal story from Mormon missionary and Bishop to successful entrepreneur to his gubernatorial run and beyond, offering reflections on our otherworldly potential and uncertain future in the age of AI. His call to action is clear: As machines become smarter, we must become wiser. You will discover: * How the rise of AI is forcing humanity to confront fundamental questions about consciousness, intelligence, and what it means to be truly human. * Why the development of AI must be guided by love, wisdom, and compassion. * How to navigate relationships in the future, ensuring we maintain genuine human connection alongside increasingly synthetic ones. * The importance of reforming institutions—religious, governmental, and business—to support human flourishing. * The cosmic necessity of mastering your life as a human being, rather than a human doing.

Human Rights and Populism - Jolyon Ford

For decades, framing an issue as a ‘human rights’ issue carried certain power and effect in politics and international relations, one that has been challenged by the recent rise of populist political forces. Ford explores the recent impact of populist politics on the universalist human rights project, in particular, how scholars have framed and responded to this challenge.Ford offers a provocation to the human rights movement. Rather than ‘what have populists done to human rights?’, it asks ‘how did we, the human rights movement, do this to ourselves?’ How did fundamental protections for all become so easily scapegoated as ‘us and them,’ as claims of small, often foreign, minorities? Did human rights lose some vital connection to ordinary people’s interests, their value taken as obvious and self-explanatory?Looking forward, the book asks how – in a post-truth ‘fake news’ world – we might reimagine human rights as underpinning human flourishing as well as important constraints on public and private concentrations of power. Traversing relevant scholarly literature on the future of human rights and zooming out to look at wider patterns of political and diplomatic discourse, this book will speak to policymakers, diplomats, journalists, and human rights advocates – and all interested in the crisis of liberal democracies.

Mýtické poklady aneb Rychle nabyl, rychle pozbyl - Robert Asprin

Aahz se během dlouho očekávané dovolené ocitne ve vzdálené dimenzi na bleším trhu. Dá se tam do řeči s kouzelným mečem, který o sobě tvrdí, že je legendárním Ersatzem, známým vůdcem Zlaté hordy, bájné sbírky sedmi mocných pokladů. Ersatz přesvědčí Aaahze, aby jej koupil s tím, že se mu nejen odmění penězi, ale že mu dokonce vrátí jeho dávno ztracenou Sílu. Zakopaný pes je ale v tom, že musí najít celý zbytek Hordy. Aahz se tedy spojí s Tanadou a její současnou zaměstnavatelkou Kalypsou, která má také své důvody, proč Hordu potřebuje dát dohromady. Musí ji vyměnit se zlým čarodějem Barýkem za život svého dědečka, velkého tanečníka Kalypsa. Na začátku tedy stál naprosto regulérní obchod, ale v průběhu šlamastyky se změnil v kombinaci honby za poklady se záchranou misí, seancí egoistů a mírovým shromážděním. Složitému úkolu nijak neulehčuje fakt, že jsou kouzelné předměty roztroušené po všemožných dmenzích a navíc se vlastně vůbec nemají rády ...

Human Rights - Shami Chakrabarti

A powerful and urgent explanation and vindication of our human rights and freedomsAfter the devastation of World War Two, the international community came together to enshrine fundamental rights to refuge, health, education and living standards, for privacy, fair trials and free speech, and outlawing torture, slavery and discrimination. Their goal was greater global justice, equality, and peace. That settlement is now in danger, attacked by opponents from across the political spectrum and populist and authoritarian movements worldwide. We are threatened by wars, inequality, new technologies and climate catastrophe, and we need our human rights now more than ever. In this powerful, accessible book, Shami Chakrabarti, lawyer, parliamentarian and leading British human rights defender, shows us why human rights are essential for our future. Outlining the historic national and international struggles for human rights, from the fall of Babylon, to the present day, Chakrabarti is an indispensable guide to the law and logic underpinning human dignity and universal freedoms. Her intervention will engage both sceptics and supporters, equipping believers in the battle of ideas and persuading doubters to think again. For human rights to survive, they must be far better understood by everyone.

Human Rights and Schooling - Audrey Osler

Most of the struggles for equitable schooling, including multicultural curricula and culturally responsive teaching, have largely taken place on a local or national stage, with little awareness of how international human rights standards might support these struggles. Human Rights and Schooling explores the potential of human rights frameworks to support grassroots struggles for justice and examines the impact that human rights and child rights education can make in the lives of students, including the most marginalized. The author, Audrey Osler, examines the theory, research, and practice linking human rights to education in order to broaden the concept of citizenship and social studies education. Bringing scholarship and practice together, the text uses concrete examples to illustrate the links between principles and ideals and actual efforts to realize social justice in and through education. Osler anchors her examination of human rights in the U.N Convention on the Rights of the Child, as well as the U.N. Declaration on Human Rights Education and Training. Book Features: Supports teachers in their everyday struggles for social justice. Contributes to theory and practice in human rights education. Advocates for greater international solidarity and cooperation in multicultural education. Explores how the concept of child rights can strengthen education for democracy.

Human Rights - Andrew Clapham

Today it is usually not long before a problem gets expressed as a human rights issue. Indeed, human rights law continues to gain increasing attention internationally, and must move quickly in order to keep up with a social world that changes so rapidly.This Very Short Introduction, in its second edition, brings the issue of human rights up to date, considering the current controversies surrounding the movement. Discussing torture and arbitrary detention in the context of counter terrorism, Andrew Clapham also considers new challenges to human rights in the context of privacy, equality and the right to health. Looking at the philosophical justification for rights, the historical origins of human rights and how they are formed in law, Clapham explains what our human rights actually are, what they might be, and where the human rights movement is heading. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area.

Human Rights in a Divided World - David Hollenbach

An astute case for Catholic engagement with human rights for allHuman rights should protect the dignity and well-being of all people. But in todayÂ’s deeply divided world, some argue that cultural differences and economic inequality undermine their universality.In Human Rights in a Divided World, David Hollenbach offers a comprehensive and cohesive analysis of the challenges to human rights, suggesting that todayÂ’s global realities call for important developments rooted in Catholic ethics. This work of theological social ethics draws on a range of disciplines to address the question of whether or not human rights remain valid as universal standards for action in a multicultural, religiously pluralistic, and economically unequal world. Hollenbach provides a compelling account of the contribution that Catholic ethics and practice make to an unequal world. He applies the proposed understanding of human rights to several issues that are much debated today, including religious freedom, the rights of refugees and other forced migrants, economic rights in the face of significant inequality, and the rights of women.Human Rights in a Divided World offers a clear path forward for the church in its engagement with politics and guidance for students of human rights as well as those working to advance them.

The Last Human Job - Allison Pugh

A timely and urgent argument for preserving the work that connects us in the age of automation"A compelling case for valuing care as a societal good and as skilled labor."—The NationWith the rapid development of artificial intelligence and labor-saving technologies like self-checkouts and automated factories, the future of work has never been more uncertain, and even jobs requiring high levels of human interaction are no longer safe. The Last Human Job explores the human connections that underlie our work, arguing that what people do for each other in these settings is valuable and worth preserving. Drawing on in-depth interviews and observations with people in a broad range of professions—from physicians, teachers, and coaches to chaplains, therapists, caregivers, and hairdressers—Allison Pugh develops the concept of “connective labor,” a kind of work that relies on empathy, the spontaneity of human contact, and a mutual recognition of each other’s humanity. The threats to connective labor are not only those posed by advances in AI or apps; Pugh demonstrates how profit-driven campaigns imposing industrial logic shrink the time for workers to connect, enforce new priorities of data and metrics, and introduce standardized practices that hinder our ability to truly see each other. She concludes with profiles of organizations where connective labor thrives, offering practical steps for building a social architecture that works. Vividly illustrating how connective labor enriches the lives of individuals and binds our communities together, The Last Human Job is a compelling argument for us to recognize, value, and protect humane work in an increasingly automated and disconnected world.

The Quest for Human Nature - Marco J. Nathan

Over the last fifty years, scholars in biology, psychology, anthropology, and cognate fields have substantially enriched traditional philosophical theories about who we are and where we come from. The assumption of a shared human nature lies at the core of some of the most pressing socio-political issues of our time. From race to sex and gender, from medical therapy to disability, from biotechnological enhancement to transhumanism, all these timely debates presuppose a robust notion of human nature. Nevertheless, the riddle of human nature remains frustratingly elusive. Why? Marco J. Nathan here provides an accessible, detailed, and up-to-date overview of cutting-edge empirical research on human nature, including evolutionary psychology, critiques of essentialism, innateness, and genetic determinism, addressing the question of why these fields have failed to provide a full-blown theory of human nature. Nathan''s answer is that our nature is not the kind of notion that is susceptible to explanation. Human nature rather plays a crucial role as an epistemological indicator, a pivotal concept that sets out the agenda for much social, political, and normative discourse. Nevertheless, science cannot adequately grasp it without dissolving it in the process.

Written with admirable clarity, an engaging style, and supported by detailed examples of analysis, the book outlines the main methodological issues and approaches within the exciting and fast-developing field of narrative research. Even researchers already familiar with narrative methods should find the presentation of thematic, structural, dialogic/performance, and visual forms of analysis a fruitful stimulus to new research endeavours."—Brian Roberts, University of Central Lancashire, U.K. "I just had to thank you for paving the path for us new and ′hopeful′ narrative researchers.

This work and the references you have chosen for us have helped me immensely during this time in my doctoral program, especially as I enter into the analysis phase." —Maria T. Yelle, nursing doctoral candidate, University of Wisconsin-Madison Narrative Methods for the Human Sciences provides a lively overview of research based on constructing and interpreting narrative. Designed to improve research practice, it gives a detailed discussion of four analytic methods that students can adapt. Author Catherine Kohler Riessman explains how to conduct the four kinds of narrative analysis using model studies from sociology, anthropology, psychology, education and nursing. Throughout the book, she compares different approaches including thematic analysis, structural analysis, dialogic/performance analysis, and visual narrative analysis. The book helps students confront specific issues in their research practice, including how to construct a transcript in an interview study; complexities of working with materials translated from another language; defining narrative segments; relating text and context; locating oneself as the researcher in a responsible way in an inquiry; and arguing for the credibility of the case-based approach. Broad in scope, Narrative Methods for the Human Sciences also offers concrete guidance in individual chapters for students and established scholars wanting to join the "narrative turn" in social research. Key FeaturesFocuses on four particular methods of narrative analysis: This text provides specific diverse exemplars of good narrative research, as practiced in several social science and human service disciplines. Offers guidance for narrative interviewing: The author discusses the complexities between spoken language and any written transcript. In the process, she encourages students to be mindful of the texts they construct from dialogues among speakers. Presents arguments about validation in case-based research: Riessman presents several ways to think about credibility in narrative studies, contextualizing validity in relation to epistemology and theoretical orientation of a study.Explores the differences between grounded theory methods and narrative analysis: The author clarifies distinctions between inductive thematic coding in grounded theory, and other interpretive approaches, and narrative analysis.Presents social linguistic methods for analyzing oral narrative: This text makes the approach accessible to readers not trained in social linguistics in part by providing rich examples from a number of different disciplines in the social and behavioral sciences. Employs visual methods of analysis: Riessman takes narrative research beyond the spoken or written texts by showing how exemplary researchers have connected participants′ words and images made during the research process. She also discusses other research that incorporates "found" im

Uniquely Human: Updated and Expanded - Barry M. Prizant

Winner of the Autism Society of America’s Dr. Temple Grandin Award for the Outstanding Literary Work in Autism A groundbreaking book on autism, by one of the world’s leading experts, who portrays autism as a unique way of being human—this is “required reading...Breathtakingly simple and profoundly positive” (Chicago Tribune).Autism therapy typically focuses on ridding individuals of “autistic” symptoms such as difficulties interacting socially, communication problems, sensory challenges, and repetitive behavior patterns. Now, this updated and expanded edition of Dr. Barry M. Prizant’s Uniquely Human tackles new language such as shifting from “person-first language” to “identity-first language,” diversity of identity in the autism sphere, and the future of autistic advocacy by amplifying the voices of autistic and neurodivergent individuals. “A must-read for anyone touched by autism…Dr. Prizant’s Uniquely Human is a crucial step in promoting better understanding and a more humane approach” (Associated Press). Instead of classifying “autistic” behaviors as signs of pathology, Dr. Prizant sees them as part of a range of strategies to cope with a world that feels chaotic and overwhelming. Rather than curb these behaviors, it’s better to enhance abilities, build on strengths, and offer supports that will lead to more desirable behavior and a better quality of life. Uniquely Human is a “brilliant” (Steve Silberman, author of NeuroTribes) approach to autism in the modern age that provides “common sense [and] practical advice” (Temple Grandin, author of The Autistic Brain) drawn from Dr. Prizant’s four-decade career. It conveys a deep respect for people with autism and their own unique qualities. Filled with humanity and wisdom, Uniquely Human “should reassure parents and caregivers of kids with autism and any other disability that their kids are not broken, but, indeed, special (Booklist, starred review).

No Longer Human - Osamu Dazai

Mine has been a life of much shame. I can't even guess myself what it must be to live the life of a human being. Portraying himself as a failure, the protagonist of Osamu Dazai's No Longer Human narrates a seemingly normal life even while he feels himself incapable of understanding human beings. His attempts to reconcile himself to the world around him begin in early childhood, continue through high school, where he becomes a "clown" to mask his alienation, and eventually lead to a failed suicide attempt as an adult. Without sentimentality, he records the casual cruelties of life and its fleeting moments of human connection and tenderness. Still one of the ten bestselling books in Japan, No Longer Human is an important and unforgettable modern classic: "The struggle of the individual to fit into a normalizing society remains just as relevant today as it was at the time of writing." (The Japan Times)

More Human - Jacqueline Carter, Rasmus Hougaard

AI has the potential to transform leadership and the human experience of work—or to lead us into an automated and uninspiring work reality. Which one will it be?Humans have always been good at inventing tools that change the way we live and work—though not always good at adapting to those changes. Consider how the internet has given us instant access to gigabytes of data and yet has made us more distracted. Or how social media has enabled us to be more connected than ever, and yet it can also alienate or isolate us. Will the power of AI create a new era of robotic, impersonal efficiency, or will it catalyze a renaissance, redefining leadership and the world of work?So far, that question has mostly prompted a wave of anxiety about the disappearance of jobs and the loss of humanness in our work lives. But as founder and Managing Partner of Potential Project Rasmus Hougaard and Senior Partner Jacqueline Carter show in this essential book, that''s a very limited perspective on the impact of AI, leaving out a crucial point: AI has the power to transform leadership for the better—the key is in how leaders use it.By delegating tasks to AI and using it to augment skills and behaviors, leaders have an opportunity to unlock a truly human experience of work while enhancing organizational performance. The AI-augmented leader moves beyond a focus on the technology itself to constantly probe how it can enhance and deepen the core qualities of human-centered leadership: awareness, wisdom, and compassion. In this way, AI can help leaders and organizations become more human.With deep insight and rigorous research, More Human will help leaders navigate our AI-enabled future.
