Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. We are living through one of the most complex periods in human history.Institutions are under pressure.Political divisions are intensifying.Technology is accelerating faster than societies can adapt.Across the world, people feel the same tension. Something fundamental is shifting, yet it is difficult to explain why.The answer lies beneath the surface of politics, culture, and conflict.Human values themselves are evolving.ValCoRE(TM) The Evolution of Human Values introduces a powerful framework for understanding how value systems shape behaviour, leadership, institutions, and societies. Building on decades of research in values psychology and systems thinking, the ValCoRE(TM) model explains why modern systems are experiencing increasing instability and what capacities are required to navigate this new era.At the centre of the framework are four stabilising capacities: ValuesWhat we hold as meaningful.ConsciousnessAwareness without collapse.ResilienceStability without rigidity.EvolutionMovement without abandonment.Together, these capacities explain why individuals, organisations, and nations either fracture under pressure or remain coherent in the face of complexity.Inside this book you will discover: - Why value systems now collide rather than evolve sequentially- Why modern institutions struggle to maintain legitimacy- How leaders misread complexity and unintentionally accelerate instability- The capacities required to hold complex systems together- What the next evolution of human values may demand from usThis is not simply a theory of development.It is a practical lens for understanding the forces shaping our time and the leadership required to navigate them.For readers interested in leadership, psychology, systems thinking, social change, and the future of human development, ValCoRE(TM) offers a map for understanding the world as it is becoming.The future will not be defined by the systems we build.It will be defined by our capacity to hold them together.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Volume I: Foundations of Governing IntelligenceArtificial intelligence is moving faster than most organisations are learning to govern it.The challenge is no longer whether organisations will use AI. It is whether they can govern it with the clarity, accountability and confidence required to use it responsibly.Governing Intelligence: The Executive Standard for AI Governance is a three-volume executive reference for understanding, establishing and strengthening the governance of artificial intelligence.Written for executives, boards, governance professionals, risk leaders, auditors and those accountable for AI within their organisations, the series moves AI governance beyond technology teams and compliance checklists and places it where it belongs: as an enterprise leadership responsibility.Volume I: Foundations of Governing Intelligence establishes the conceptual and organisational foundations for governing increasingly capable forms of artificial intelligence. It examines what AI is becoming, why traditional governance is no longer sufficient, how governance responsibilities must evolve, and where accountability must remain firmly human.Drawing on contemporary governance thinking, real-world application and emerging AI practice, Volume I explores: - The evolution from software to increasingly autonomous intelligence- The rise of agentic AI and the governance implications of autonomy- Why AI governance is fundamentally different from traditional technology governance- The meaning, purpose and architecture of AI governance- Executive and Board accountability for AI- The history and evolution of governance itself- Why existing governance models must adapt as intelligence becomes more capable- The relationship between governance, strategy, risk, value and human judgementAt its centre is a critical proposition: Good AI governance is not designed to stop innovation. It creates the conditions in which innovation can be trusted.As AI systems become increasingly capable of acting, deciding and influencing outcomes, organisations must be able to answer fundamental questions: Who is accountable? What is the system permitted to do? What risks are acceptable? Where must humans remain involved? How is authority controlled? And what happens when capability evolves faster than existing controls?Volume I establishes the foundations required to answer those questions.The complete Governing Intelligence collection then builds progressively across three volumes: Volume I - Foundations of Governing IntelligenceParts I-II. Chapters 1-9Establishes the foundations, principles, architecture and leadership responsibilities of AI governance.Volume II - The Global Governance LandscapePart III. Chapters 10-14Examines the major international principles, standards and frameworks shaping AI governance, including the OECD AI Principles, ISO/IEC 42001, ISO/IEC 23894 and the NIST AI Risk Management Framework.Volume III - Governing AI in PracticeParts IV-V. Chapters 15-22Moves from frameworks to implementation, assurance, AI risk management, AIMS, agentic AI, human oversight, non-human identities and the future of trust.Together, the three volumes form the complete first edition of Governing Intelligence: The Executive Standard for AI Governance.Because the organisations that succeed in the age of AI will not simply be those with the most advanced intelligence.They will be those capable of governing it.Better decisions. Stronger organisations. A safer, more human future. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …
