Ten Signals 2026-27: How Artificial Intelligence Is Reshaping Careers, Leadership, and Decision-Making - From Students to Boardrooms (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789356352872)

Ten Signals - 2026-27 is a strategic guide for students, professionals, and leaders navigating the second phase of artificial intelligence-where systems no longer just assist humans, but increasingly act on their behalf.

This book does not focus on tools or trends. Instead, it decodes ten structural signals already reshaping careers, organisations, and decision-making across industries-from finance and technology to governance and leadership.

Written by a practitioner with decades of experience across finance, risk, technology, and professional education, this book helps readers understand not just what is changing, but what maturity and responsibility demand in response.

Inside the book, you will explore:

• How Agentic AI is shifting human roles from execution to oversight

• Why Generative AI creates a second maturity curve-more subtle, more dangerous

• How regulation, governance, and accountability are being reshaped by intelligent systems

• What students must learn beyond tools to remain relevant

• How professionals transition from doers to orchestrators

• What boards and leaders must confront as decision-making accelerates

This book is written for:

• Students preparing for careers in an AI-mature economy

• Working professionals navigating role shifts and relevance

• CXOs and board members responsible for governing intelligent systems

Ten Signals - 2026-27 is not about predicting the future.
It is about recognising it early and responding responsibly.

This book will help you if you are asking:

• How will AI actually change careers-not just tools?

• What skills matter when execution is automated?

• How do I stay relevant without chasing every trend?

• What does responsible leadership look like in an AI-driven world?
