Humans and AI at Work: Trust, Skill, and Identity

AI is changing more than how work gets done. It is changing how employees understand their skill, value, authority, security, and relationship with the organizations they work for. Humans and AI at Work examines the human and managerial challenges that emerge when AI begins to advise, generate, monitor, evaluate, coordinate, and make decisions inside everyday work. Drawing on organizational research, emerging AI evidence, and practical management experience, Sasa Cibula explores the questions leaders cannot solve with technology alone: Can employees trust the system and the organization deploying it? Will AI strengthen judgment or erode expertise? Who benefits from productivity gains? Does human oversight carry real authority? What happens to dignity, fairness, workload, career paths, and accountability? Rather than offering productivity hacks or a one-size-fits-all transformation formula, this book provides a clear framework built around three durable concerns: trust, skill, and identity. Written for executives, managers, HR and learning leaders, change professionals, and employees navigating AI-integrated work.
