Self-help β¦ Penny’s Take
Humans are Underrated
Geoffrey Colvin Β· 2015
Colvin makes a compelling, research-backed case that empathy, storytelling, and relationship skills are the irreplaceable human edge as AI reshapes the economy β and the argument lands with real urgency now that that shift has accelerated well beyond what he described. The writing is clear, the sourcing is credible, and the endorsement from someone as rigorous as Doris Kearns Goodwin carries weight. It leans corporate, so readers outside the professional world may find the lens a bit narrow, but the core insight is broadly useful.
β¦ Penny’s Take β this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below. It’s an honest first-party read β not a page-by-page personal one. The gold β Penny Tested mark is reserved for books Penny reads cover to cover herself.
