Insight Edge: Crafting Breakthroughs in a World of Information Overload

Vivek Banerji

As Artificial Intelligence reshapes industries, one question looms large: Where does human ingenuity fit?

Drawing on decades of experience at organizations such as Insight Dojo, McKinsey and PepsiCo, Vivek Banerji reveals how to generate powerful insights that drive transformational success for organizations. He urges us to embrace the dynamic interplay of art and science, imagination and pragmatism, theory and practice – and to draw inspiration from diverse disciplines, whether it is machine learning, design, statistics, psychology, music, art or sports.

Insight Edge makes a compelling case that information alone does not create insight. Instead, it is inherently human qualities – curiosity, analytical thinking, creativity and empathy – that shape meaningful strategies and drive breakthrough outcomes.

With real-world examples and actionable frameworks, this book equips leaders and professionals – CEOs, marketers, customer insights experts, strategists, non-profit executives, entrepreneurs, and data analysts – to move beyond algorithms and tap into the irreplaceable power of human insight.
