[New Release] Rethinking Management With AI

IT Daily introduced the new book, "Rethinking Management With AI." The book defines AI not as a tool limited to work efficiency, but as a comprehensive management solution, and presents the key insight that the engines of management as a whole, including strategy, Organization, Operations, and Business Model, must be fundamentally redesigned from scratch.

To explain this, the authors compare the difference between DX and AX to navigation and self-driving. DX is described as infrastructure that supports human judgment, while AX is a self-driving transformation in which AI takes charge of environment analysis, route search, and execution after the destination is set. The book focuses on the changes in the management environment brought on by the emergence of "Agentic AI," and the authors argue that a company's core question should shift from whether to buy AI software to how to convert the Organization's driving engine into an Agentic AI system.

The book goes beyond simply presenting ideas and provides an execution framework that can be applied immediately in the field. Five field experts in AI technology, CTO, HR, marketing, and ESG regulation participated to present four core pillars for corporate redesign. In the Customer Experience section, it moves away from static segment analysis and discusses ways to redesign Customer Experience around real-time context. In the Operations section, it goes beyond simple automation to propose building an intelligent decision loop in which prediction, adjustment, and optimization are linked. In the Organization section, it covers a shift from a headcount-centered Organization to a structure in which humans and AI share judgment responsibilities, along with a redefinition of the manager's role. In the Business Model section, it presents a direction for moving from one-time product sales to a sustainable ecosystem model based on data feedback.

The book also includes a five-stage (L1~L5) self-diagnosis model for checking a company's current position in AI adoption, a 12-week AX project roadmap, HITL/HOTL governance design, and an AXESG sustainability strategy that combines AI and ESG, connecting all of these to practical guidance. These additions serve as a hands-on guideline for both practitioners and senior executives.

The book, "Rethinking Management With AI," defines AI as a major turning point in the history of civilization and is a practical guide for CEOs, executives, CIOs, CTOs, strategic planners, and frontline team leaders who want to set direction proactively during the AI transition and redesign the engine of corporate growth. For these readers, the book offers a clear roadmap as an actionable guide.
