In Winning in the Robotic Workplace: How to Prosper in the Automation Age, financial journalist and author John F. Wasik offers a practical guide to thriving as automation reshapes every industry.

Those who master the art of conceptualizing and pursuing original ideas will be indispensable in any economy.

Drawing on deep research into the future of work, Wasik shows how developing uniquely human skills — creativity, emotional intelligence, adaptability, and purpose — can not only protect your career but propel it forward during technological transitions.

• Identify the uniquely human skills that automation cannot replicate
• Develop creativity and original thinking as your career's greatest asset
• Navigate industry disruption with confidence and adaptability
• Build a career strategy that thrives amid technological change
• Help make your workplace more human-centered while staying ahead of automation
