AI Innovations for Travel and Tourism

Today, organizations face significant pressure to rapidly innovate and respond to changing market demands, but many struggle to align engineering practices with overarching business goals. Agile and DevOps methodologies, often seen purely as technical solutions, can fail without proper alignment with executive-level expectations and objectives. Using a clear, actionable framework to effectively drive organizational change, this book addresses this critical gap by providing leaders with the tools and knowledge required to directly connect technical outputs to corporate strategy, ensuring development efforts consistently result in tangible business value.
Drawing on firsthand experiences in global enterprises, author Leo Bardelli demystifies Agile and DevOps methodologies, demonstrating how—when strategically implemented—they streamline processes, accelerate innovation, and deliver measurable impact that resonates with executives and board members alike. Structured around the most pressing pain points faced by senior managers and technical leaders, you’ll find essential topics such as maturity assessments, stakeholder engagement, strategic communication with executives, legacy system modernization, and effective risk management. Bardelli offers practical tools and actionable insights, including real-world templates, detailed case studies, maturity matrices, and KPIs tailored for clear communication with Board-level and executive stakeholders.
Unlike other technical guides that focus narrowly on engineering processes, Bridging the Gap uniquely blends technology and strategic business management, making, making these methodologies indispensable tools for sustained organizational growth and profitability.

Bridging the Gap

Routledge Studies in Trust Research

This innovative research monograph explores the nuanced relationship between artificial intelligence, trust dynamics, and value creation in modern organizations.Drawing on rich theoretical foundations and careful empirical analysis, the authors survey how AI technologies are reshaping our understanding of trust and value creation in organizational settings, offering fresh perspectives on these evolving phenomena. This book makes a significant contribution to management science through its thoughtfully structured approach. The authors first develop a sophisticated theoretical framework examining AI's influence on management practices and trust mechanisms, then present compelling empirical evidence on trust-based value creation. Their findings illuminate the subtle interplay between human trust, AI-enabled systems, and value creation processes in contemporary business models, supported by robust qualitative and quantitative research.This scholarly work speaks to academics, researchers, and doctoral candidates in management science, information systems, and organizational behaviour. It holds particular relevance for those studying organizational transformation, trust dynamics, and the evolution of AI-influenced business models. The book's theoretical depth and empirical insights also make it an invaluable resource for postgraduate students specializing in technology management and organizational studies who seek to understand these emerging organizational dynamics.

Bibliotheks- und Informationspraxis

This volume is intended as an assessment of the situation of the specialized world of parliamentary and public authority libraries. It brings together contributions from libraries of various sizes, sponsors (federal, state) and institutions (parliaments, ministries, courts, authorities) and describes their current challenges as well as their approaches to address them. Its central theme is digital change. How does it affect parliamentary and public authority libraries, which business areas are affected? What adjustments are there, e.g. in acquisitions with regard to print vs. online? Are there any new services being offered in terms of use/customer acquisition and others that have been abolished because there was no longer any demand for them? How do parliamentary and government libraries function in the "post-COVID" period, what effects do the home office regulations of the institutions have on the internal organization and the relationship between online vs. face-to-face use? The articles in this volume are based on these and similar key questions. Taken together, they provide an insight into the structural challenges facing parliamentary and public authority libraries and the possibilities for successfully addressing them.

Dieser Band versteht sich als Standortbestimmung innerhalb der speziellen Welt der Parlaments- und Behördenbibliotheken. Er versammelt Beiträge aus Bibliotheken verschiedenster Größe, Träger (Bund, Länder) und Einrichtungen (Parlamente, Ministerien, Gerichte, Behörden) und beschreibt deren aktuelle Problemstellungen und Lösungswege. Sein zentrales Thema ist der digitale Wandel. Wie wirkt er sich auf die Parlaments- und Behördenbibliotheken aus, welche Geschäftsfelder sind betroffen? Welche Anpassungen gibt es z. B. in der Erwerbung im Hinblick auf Print vs. Online? Gibt es in der Benutzung/Kundenwerbung Services, die neu angeboten werden und anderes, was abgeschafft wurde, weil es keine Nachfrage mehr danach gab? Wie funktionieren die Parlaments- und Behördenbibliotheken in der Nach-Corona-Zeit, welche Auswirkungen haben die Home-Office-Regelungen der Einrichtungen auf die Binnenorganisation und das Verhältnis Online- vs. Präsenznutzung? Die Beiträge des Bandes orientieren sich an diesen und vergleichbaren Leitfragen. In der Zusammenschau vermitteln sie einen Einblick in die strukturellen Herausforderungen der Parlaments- und Behördenbibliotheken und die Möglichkeiten, ihnen erfolgreich zu begegnen.

Contributions to Economics

This book examines the revolutionary impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on communication and collaboration. In recent years, advances in large language models and deep learning have enabled seamless human communication across diverse languages and even with other species, such as dogs and humpback whales. AI is also unlocking the language of plants, including tomatoes and the 'wood wide web.'
The book explores how technologies in natural language processing, image recognition, audio analysis, and network analysis facilitate unprecedented fuzzy data analysis. This progress is crucial for promoting sustainability and addressing climate change by uncovering patterns in complex environmental data that inform sustainable practices and policies. The book further focuses on studying interspecies communication, where AI technologies decode communication patterns between humans and other species, allowing a better understanding of the natural world. It highlights how plants can capture human emotions, enhancing well-being and productivity.
Presenting empirical applications and case studies, the book analyzes societal, economic, and ecological implications, advancing theoretical insights, and introducing innovative methods. It will appeal to an interdisciplinary audience of scholars, students, and researchers in the social sciences, economics, business, sociology, psychology, environmental studies, and media and communication who are interested in a deeper understanding of how artificial intelligence and interspecies communication can contribute to building a sustainable future.&nbsp;

Boost your AI quotient for AI-ready leadership.Most leaders know that AI can deliver efficiency gains, making it a company priority in a challenging business environment. But the pace of change is outstripping their ability to adapt. More than 75% of leaders report that AI is creating challenges they have never faced before and these new challenges, anxieties and uncertainty about the future are creating a 'readiness gap'.AI-Q, your AI Quotient, is both a new metric for assessing readiness and a framework for building it. Use the AI-Q MAP (Mindset, Abilities and Practices) to: <ul> <li> assess where you are today </li> <li> identify the critical gaps, and </li> <li> build the leadership and organizational capabilities you need to ensure your AI investments deliver returns. </li> </ul>Futurist and economist Athena Peppes draws on research from leading institutions and expert interviews to offer a new approach to AI-readiness, the new critical leadership capability in the human+AI era.

AI-Q

Routledge Advances in Regional Economics, Science and Policy

There is growing global interest in understanding how digital technologies and physical spaces, particularly within the framework of digital and green agendas, can transform cities, influence behaviour, and stimulate innovation. This book advances a novel and interdisciplinary framework for understanding intelligent environments, grounded in the concept of connected intelligence, the integration of human, collective, and machine intelligence.It explores how this integration operates within real-world smart ecosystems to drive transformative innovations in sustainability, carbon neutrality, urban efficiency, and liveability. Departing from approaches that treat intelligent systems as purely technological constructs, such as urban Artificial Intelligence (AI), cyber-physical infrastructure, digital twins, and machine learning vision, it reframes intelligent environments as socio-technical systems that remain fundamentally human-centric, even in the age of AI. It distinguishes itself from existing smart city literature, which often isolates digital technologies and IoT infrastructures for cities, by offering a comprehensive investigation of smart ecosystems as digital-institutional-physical (DIP) spaces; an analysis of real-world environments where connected intelligence is enacted, including industrial sectors evolving into smart-green ecosystems, platform services augmented by generative AI, carbon-neutral residential districts; and the development of a universal architecture of connected intelligence, applicable across diverse ecosystems.By bridging theory and practice and integrating technological, institutional, and territorial perspectives, the book introduces a conceptual and practical lens to understand how smart ecosystems enable ongoing transformative innovations that are reshaping the near future of cities and regions. It offers insights into how smart cities are evolving into intelligent environments and will serve as a valuable reference for researchers and students of innovation systems, smart city planning, urban, transportation and environmental planning, governance, computer science, and engineering.

The Platform Enabled Banking Transformation Playbook or What a Kitchen Disaster Teaches about Fixing Banks!The renovations needed to fix a broken dishwasher and flooded kitchen are the genesis for Rip Out the Core: A DIY Guide to Platform-Enabled Banking Transformation. They showed what many transformation leaders learn the hard way: do not just tear everything out and rebuild. People have to live in the house while it is being renovated. Likewise, a bank must keep banking while modernising systems. Customers still need their payments processed. Regulators still need their reports. Staff still need systems that work. The art isn't in the demolition - any fool can destroy things. The art is in the careful, methodical, strategic rebuilding that does not bring the whole structure crashing down.This art is the foundation of the book's Platform Enabled Banking Transformation (PEBT). PEBT is not a product. It is not a framework in search of a slide deck. It is a way to think about doing progressive modernisation step by step, capability by capability, with strategy, sanity, and staying power. Tracing these steps, the book starts with why systems fail, how to spot the early warning signs, and why starting with tech is usually a terrible idea. It then covers blueprints, construction, and systems rollout to end with a look into the platform-enabled future of banking, and how to stay adaptable in an unpredictable world.This book is written for anyone working in banking and especially in Information Technology, operations, architecture, or transformation. It is written to make them feel seen. It is written for those who have thought, "We can't keep patching this thing forever." This book explains why that thought keeps coming back, and how to modernise without losing control of the bank along the way

A DIY Guide to Platform-Enabled Banking Transformation

Rip Out the Core

In a rapidly shifting landscape of business technology, established CIOs must continually reaffirm their relevance by demonstrating an extraordinary capacity for innovation and adaptation. In my view, the only way for existing CIOs to survive in their roles is to radically reinvent themselves.
Unfortunately, much of the existing literature on digital transformation is naïve, misguided, or simply wrong, with far too many self-proclaimed "experts" attempting to make a name for themselves by claiming to know how to successfully drive digital transformation.
In a field populated by questionable experts touting dubious success stories, Patrick Naef has carefully selected contributors who have either implemented genuine digital transformations or produced important academic research on the subject. Each of the chapters in the book offers a unique perspective informed by real-world engagement with the realities of possibilities of digital technology. By bringing together these disparate voices, the editor hopes to further clarify the transformative potential of digital technology, equipping the CIOs of today with the knowledge and insight necessary to thrive in the world of tomorrow.

Applied Innovation and Technology Management

Why do some countries build innovation systems that foster learning, experimentation, and technological progress, while others struggle to move beyond dependency and stagnation? This book examines this central question through a multidisciplinary lens, combining insights from innovation systems theory, institutional economics, development studies, and global political economy. It offers a comprehensive framework for understanding the systemic roots of innovation failure in emerging and transition economies. It shows how fragmented institutions, weak absorptive capacities, and short-term policy horizons create persistent barriers to learning and capability building and how these obstacles can be overcome through coordinated governance, strategic coherence, and adaptive policymaking. Drawing on real-world examples and comparative evidence, this book is appropriate for researchers, graduate students, and policymakers concerned with innovation, industrial policy, and economic transformation in developing and emerging economies.
