Culture Re-Wired

LITERARY TITAN BOOK REVIEW""Culture Re-wired is part wake-up call, part playbook, and part pep talk. Author Ida Byrd-Hill dives straight into the heart of how artificial intelligence is reshaping business and insists that culture, not tech alone, determines who wins in this race. She draws on case studies, industry data, and real-life examples to demonstrate that both frontline workers and CEOs need to view AI as a partner, not a replacement. The book argues that human creativity, emotional intelligence, and culture are what turn AI into a genuine growth engine.The writing style took me by surprise. It's bold, loud, and packed with metaphors that sometimes felt like a pep rally. But the energy worked for me because the subject is urgent. The author doesn't whitewash the fears people have about losing their jobs to AI, and she doesn't dismiss those fears either. Instead, she shows how fear can kill innovation if it's ignored. I found myself nodding along when she described middle managers as bottlenecks. I've seen that happen, and her advice on rewiring leadership training to focus on people skills resonated with me.At the same time, I caught myself smiling at her bluntness. She doesn't dance around her points, and that made the book fly by. The mix of statistics and case studies kept things grounded, but what I really liked were the stories of companies like Ford and Bank of America that had to push past cultural resistance to make AI stick. It's one thing to say ""culture matters,"" but it's another to show how culture literally makes or breaks billion-dollar rollouts. Reading those sections made me feel hopeful that AI doesn't have to be a cold or scary thing. It can make work better if leaders get it right.I'd recommend this book to managers, executives, and anyone who feels anxious about AI creeping into their job. It isn't a technical manual. It's about mindset. If you want to understand how culture drives technology instead of the other way around, I highly recommend this book. It's equal parts practical advice and rallying cry, and it left me energized.""https: //literarytitan.com/2025/09/06/culture-re-wired-unleash-your-inner-ai-ceo/
