“There is no book better than Humachine to help us navigate the road ahead. The first edition of this book was ahead of its time. This second edition is essential reading!”

—Maria P. Villablanca, Co-Founder & CEO, Future Insights Network, Transformation Influencer, Mentor and Keynote Speaker

Global crises are the new normal. Every business needs a better way to forecast future events, predict outcomes, and restructure to be agile. I teach companies how to do this.

About Nada

About The Humachine

The first edition of The Humachine offered a foundation for a new form of enterprise, integrating AI technology and human resources to optimize the unique advantages possessed by each.

Now, in the face of the ‘Great Resignation’ and ‘botsourcing’—where an activity previously done by humans is replaced by technology—thought leaders Sanders and Wood present a more positive and promising scenario, where an enterprise recognizes human resources as an asset class that possesses skills that cannot be replaced by automation.
