Sensemaking Lib/E Christian Madsbjerg

We live in the age of algorithms. But what happens when number crunching fails to solve a company's problems? Madsbjerg argues that many of today's biggest success stories stem not from quant thinking but from deep, nuanced engagement with the culture, language, and history of customers. He calls this technique sensemaking and illustrates how business leaders, entrepreneurs, and individuals can use human science tools to innovate and solve their thorniest problems. In a time when liberal arts graduates fear for their prospects, Sensemaking is a welcome, transformative vision for success in the twenty-first century.
