THE RISE OF THE HUMAN-CENTRIC ENTERPRISE Artificial intelligence, robotics, big data, disruptive developments based on digital business models bring companies to the edge of singularity, understood as the point of departure where a system changes into something entirely new. Following big questions in business and society derived from singularity: • How do we lead more humanly in business when Artificial Intelligence decides faster and more precisely than we do? • How do we create a framework for new forms of cooperation? • How can companies develop an ambidextrous culture to stabilize that worth preserving and at the same time initiates innovation? • In short, what do we have to do today to survive the digital revolution? The Singularity Leadership® model provides practical answers – because the human being can beat algorithms READER´S VOICES: "Jan Brecke is a well-respected authority of corporate cultures (from 'testosterone top-down' to 'silicon valley bottom-up') and a smart observant predestined to provide direction in digital transformation. Anyone looking for fresh, thoughtful, and purposeful solutions to shape modern leadership in today's digital world should read this book. " Dr. Kerim Galal, Senior Vice President (SVP) Corporate Strategy, Innovation & Digitalization, DEKRA SE “A great guide to leading the transformation of a business organization into the digital age. 'Singularity Leadership' comprehensively and understandably covers all relevant aspects of this process while keeping a focus on being a human being. Perhaps the best and most readable book I have read on leadership and corporate culture right now and that I can definitely recommend.” Klaus-Peter Fett, Chief Information and Digital Officer and Member of the Managing Board, Roechling SE & Co. KG (at the printing of this book: Industry Lead Manufacturing Google Cloud, Google LLC) "At first you might think: Another book in the flood of leadership literature that tells me how to do it and how to make it even better. But far from it: I have read a valuable book, which describes clearly and legibly the challenges for successful corporate management in the course of digitization. The book is written pragmatically and understandable. Remarkably is the explicit recommendation to depart from technocratic and obsolete old school management of the ' Deutschland AG' type. Jan Brecke is not satisfied with the description of the challenges but provides an excellent guide to the reader; a cookbook with the essential ingredients and recipes for successful corporate management, which will continue to be successful in the future." Prof. Dr. Christian Knop, Medical Director Traumatology and Orthopedics; Klinikum Stuttgart "Jan Brecke knows the challenges companies have to face and names pragmatic solutions. As companies do not change their operating models completely in all units at the same pace, a mix of more traditional approaches and start-up processes like ambidexterity is suggested by the author. I would definitely recommend this book to all my managers." Rolf Zeidler, Global Head of Analytics and Insight Services, multinational software corporation "Jan Brecke´s book "Singularity Leadership" is based on the thesis that the digital transformation is not a technical problem but a cultural one. Thus, every organization and leader has the opportunity to face these new realities, like digital change, Generation Z, and increasingly more complex and volatile decision-making environments. The book offers ten principles of action that provide pragmatic assistance in developing a sustainable corporate culture. In doing so, Jan Brecke anchors the idea that a successful company should be built on authentic company values in the future and to guide the meaningful and goal-oriented actions of its employees. An exciting book that keeps inspiring people to think about their challenges and management tools and that gives them a lot of concrete suggestions for trying out new things to survive the digital transformation!
