About the Book

A fascinating guide for business leaders looking to ensure that their teams remain productive and engaged in the digital era.

Businesses across all sectors now realise that, if they intend on staying competitive in the 21st century, then they must embrace new innovative technologies and methodologies such as AI, automation, digital platforms and Agile. But when too much focus is placed on digital transformation, teams within the organization become overlooked – the uniquely human benefits that arise from a well-functioning, collaborative team become neglected, and the employees themselves become unmotivated and overly dependent upon the quantifiable benefits of technology.

In People Before Tech, Duena Blomstrom uncovers the true potential of teams in modern organizations by highlighting the importance of psychological safety. This ground-breaking approach leads to a powerful group dynamic that allows teams to take risks, create and innovate without fear of repercussion.

With fascinating research, controversial approaches and an international array of case studies, this book provides practical guidance on how business and technology leaders as well as HR professionals can draw upon psychological safety to create and cultivate satisfied, efficient and high-performing teams within their organization.

Review :
Through concepts like psychological safety, people will thrive, value will be created, and the human condition will improve in concert with technology. People Before Tech is your essential guidebook to a human-centric approach. Unoptimized and disenfranchised teams will be your new norm unless you take action. In People Before Tech, Duena Blomstrom shows you how to create Psychological Safety and change lives. A must read. What Duena has done has not only thrust the human back into the heart of HR but also extends this deep into organizational psychology and the nature of productivity, teamwork, and workplace culture. A recommended read for leaders who want to change and transform their business and how they engage their workforce for the better. The world faces great uncertainty in respect to increasing automation and the role humans will play in the future of business and the role work will play in our lives. People Before Tech tackles this issue head on as the culture of companies changes to digital-first and humans second. Duena provides us with a plan to keep humans engaged and differentiated during this global transformation. Duena and I connected over our passion for psychological safety and making the workspace human again. Or as Duena puts it: “getting rid of our human debt”. This book shows why psychological safety is a need-to-have and not just a nice-to-have if you want a successful company today and in the future.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
