The Threshold Lib/E: Leading in the Age of AI

We are living in a new age: the Age of AI. With developments emerging every day, Artificial Intelligence will soon surpass most human competencies and drastically transform technology's role in our day-to-day world. The solution for organizational leaders is not to become more like computers. In order for our organizations to survive as we stand at the threshold of a new era, we must tap into the qualities that make us uniquely human. In the face of increasingly intelligent technology, old models of leadership are becoming obsolete. In The Threshold, accomplished leadership consultant Nick Chatrath interweaves an analysis of antiquated leadership modes--the ones that leave AI-Era organizations exposed and ineffective with colleagues frustrated, unmotivated, and burnt-out--with his newly developed strategies for more effective "threshold" leadership methods. The Threshold demonstrates that adaptive, effective organizations can be built with human, emotional intelligence: cultivating stillness, nurturing independent thinking, finding rhythms of rest and performance, and raising leadership consciousness. With a basis in the ideas and practices that have shaped our organizations in the past, The Threshold illuminates how accessing advanced stages of human development can be both competitive and harmonious with AI's growing insinuation into our working world.

On childhood trips to the library, his mother would have to set limits on the amount of books he could check out (much to his dismay). He came to the world of spoken audio first via college radio, and later through hosting an interview podcast. After enjoying a career in software, his love for storytelling and connecting learners to information made audiobooks a natural fit. When not narrating audiobooks or attending his kids' activities, Derek can be found hiking, camping, or enjoying the great outdoors.
