Leaders walk the line of dealing with the unknown, building confidence to act in those around them, and operating from principles instead of scripts. Bishop is such a leader. In Dancing with Robots, readers will go to the precipice of the immediate future in four intersecting domains: humanity, technology, thinking, and business. 29 strategies take the edge off of how to embrace artificial intelligence and technology - yes, to dance with it!  Readers from the humanities, business, entrepreneurs, healthcare, and futurists will appreciate the nuanced stories and sharp focus that supports each strategy. In the end, the whole is greater than the sum of each part. Highly recommend.

I firmly believe Bill Bishop belongs in the same conversations as those involving Seth Godin, Gary V, and others like them (he's a lot more accessible too). He has the unique ability to take several marketing and sales ideas-techniques and marry them with technology and after 20 minutes be able to distill everything in an easy to understand plan. I've never worked with anyone like Bill and recommend anything he writes...and ultimately teaches.

I’ve devoured just about everything Bill Bishop has written. He has the unique ability of distilling complex ideas into simple, doable and commercial outcomes. Three such ideas I took, and actioned, from his last book were simply to identify a big goal; a big problem; and a signature program to satiate them.

Bill Bishop helped Turkstra Lumber develop our Big Idea, the Build-It-Better program.  This program has been a big hit with our DIY customers and has moved us away from Old Factory Thinking and into the New Economy. The New Economy Thinker was a must-read for our entire Team.  Dancing with Robots is a fascinating book that builds on Bill’s concepts outlined in The New Economy Thinker.  The topic is timely and thought provoking as we move into an uncharted but exciting time to be business leaders.  We’re all looking forward to moving out of the “factories” and joining the “network”.

Bill Bishop has done it again, taking readers on a journey to the future that is entertaining and insightful. Dancing With Robots is for anyone seeking to understand the New Economy and helps to explain why our future will be more human - not less. As an educator this book offers hope that the future will be defined not by traditional academic siloes but by big ideas that require co-creation, our human curiosity and creativity, and maybe a few robots.
