Sensemaking by Christian Madsbjerg

The Power of the Humanities in the Age of the Algorithm

In this insightful exploration of human understanding, the book delves into the art of sensemaking, a process that transcends data-driven analysis by incorporating cultural and contextual insights to interpret complex situations. It argues that in an era dominated by big data and algorithms, the human ability to derive meaning through empathy, intuition, and narrative is more crucial than ever. By drawing on examples from various fields, the book illustrates how embracing the humanities can lead to more profound and effective decision-making in business and beyond, ultimately advocating for a balanced approach that values both quantitative and qualitative insights.
