Our first face-to-face live episode with Greg Orme.

Even before the pandemic, it seemed the world was spinning so fast it’s difficult to keep up. Arguably a lot of the technological disruption that was around in 2019 simply got accelerated – remote working, digitization, and AI to name just three.  Our guest today notes in his book: Two hundred and fifty years ago the Industrial Revolution replaced our arms and legs at work. The fourth Industrial Revolution is now replacing our brains.   He says

The Machine Age is engulfing both organizations and people. This shift is challenging the very essence of what it means to be human.  

His book The Human Edge, how curiosity and creativity are your superpowers in the digital economy won Business Book of the year in 2020.   He explores the skills you need to survive and thrive in a world of smartphones and AI.

He urges you to stop competing, and instead do things machines can’t. To become a more human, human.

We welcome the author of “The Human Edge” Greg Orme. https://gregorme.org
