Judgment Day
How to Lead When AI Breaks Everything
A field manual for the person who has to run a team through this. Not a book about how AI works, and not a book about whether to be worried. It is about what you do on Monday when half of what your team does just got cheaper and they are all watching you to see whether you will tell them the truth.
It covers what AI breaks first, which is hiring, communication, decision-making and trust, and why those break in that order. It covers how to organize a team for a landscape that changes every ninety days. It covers protecting people from irrelevance, which is a different job from protecting their jobs, and it is honest about the difference.
And it has the chapter nobody else writes: what to say when you cannot promise relevance either. Ninety-nine percent of CEOs expect AI to reduce their workforce and thirty-two percent think their teams can handle the transition. Most advice on this subject assumes you have something reassuring to say. That chapter is for the quarters when you do not.
