“Kevin provides a comprehensive, detailed, and thoughtful treatment of the exciting future of the bionic enterprise. Such a future needs to be shaped by all of us for the good of humankind and this book provides a framework for today’s enterprises to leap into the bionic future in a responsible manner. This book rightfully focuses on capabilities rather than technologies to lead the reader into implementing key principles to ensure flexible enterprise architecture without rigid technological requirements.”
– Nikhil Deshpande – Intel Corporation, PhD, Senior Director | Security | AI | High Performance Computing & Graph Analytics | New Product Development
“Kevin’s Bionic Enterprise is a vision of the enterprise of the future – the fusion of AI technology at the deepest levels to human activity throughout the organization. Kevin provides a framework that he describes as a framework of frameworks that organizations can use to chart their course through this 4th industrial revolution.
Kevin’s framework integrates aspects of the human perspective, including frameworks and maturity models for organizational transformation, visionary leadership, creativity, and innovation. Kevin’s comparison to bionic individuals like those depicted in the popular ’70s television shows, the Six Million Dollar Man, and The Bionic Woman is a perfect metaphor for how humans, organizations, and future societies must work harmoniously with technology.
Kevin argues the concept of the enterprise architecture singularity will be that point at which the organization achieves a level of self-awareness, self-optimization, and self-organization. He and I agree the human perspective will always be at the heart of the enterprise, albeit now or in the future. Kevin’s book should be of interest to futurists, technologists, innovators, managers, and leaders in business and government who are looking to frame their future transformation efforts.”
– John A. Zachman, Chief Executive Officer, Zachman International – Creator of the Zachman Framework for Enterprise Architecture
“Kevin has provided a comprehensive understanding of how enterprise architects and future business planners should prepare for future innovation and technology advancements. Kevin has addressed the gap of incorporating how humans will be made more impactful to organizations and businesses through application of both known digital capabilities (e.g. AI, Crypto, Robotics etc.), and unknown concepts through the extension of his expanded EA frameworks. Certainly, something to consider in order to properly plan for the future and gain an edge.”
– Curtis Lupton – Principal & Founder, ValueProve LLC
“The Bionic Enterprise represents a quantum leap in architectural thinking. As artificial intelligence increasingly connects the world around us, organizations will succeed or fail based on their ability to adapt in real-time. The Bionic Enterprise Framework articulates the human and technology elements of this challenge, as well as the fusion we must consider in becoming a truly intelligent enterprise – one that exists in a state of perpetual transformation, constantly enabling a user experience that changes from one second to the next.”
– Brian P. Creswick – Owner & Chief Operations Officer – Chartis Federal
“This book provides the blueprint to organizations on how to plan and prepare themselves for the next generation of the hyper connected world. This book is not just an abstract concept but should be used as a playbook while conceiving the future architecture, customer experience and operational transformation. Kevin beautifully meshes the importance of the bionic fusion strands and how to create a future proof customer experience.”

“A large number of books have been written about the rapid advancements in the areas of Internet of Things, Cloud Computing, Big Data and Artificial Intelligence, eventually leading to the attainment of a technological singularity. Many of those books underscore the perils of unconstrained AI becoming haywire. As the builders of AI, corporations – large and small – have the responsibility to build a benevolent AI. In his book – The Bionic Enterprise, Kevin Brett lays out an elaborate conceptual framework for building a company that will create benevolent AI by design. After illustrating intricate models for organizational dimensions of creativity, leadership, and transformation, Kevin establishes the maturity model for the technological dimensions of the bionic enterprise. Finally, Kevin elucidates his vision and the blueprint for building the bionic enterprise. This thought-provoking book is an essential read for the corporate and technology leaders alike.”
– Abhijit Thatte – Aeye, Inc, SVP, AI and Software
“The bionic enterprise is well described as a framework, that at the very least causes us to understand that none of us are prepared for a future that is rapidly approaching. This well researched concept lays out the complexities and advantages that will go to those who plan their future of their companies, instead of just letting them happen. Even with such a framework, I an confident that those who go down this journey now, will discover much more, and those with their heads in the sand, will get buried. ”
– John Vaughan, Founder at Williamsburg AI Institute of Technologies & Training WAIITT LLC
“It has all the ingredients. Given the breadth of the topics Kevin have covered on this aspect, it’s sensational. … I find it intriguing to read topics such as these that would change the way we live. This book has the ingredients to lay a platform to transcend the ecosystem.”
– Ravi Naarla – Anthem, Chief Architect/Digital
“The human civilization is at a crossroads. It is about to embark on a new intelligent technology-led disruption that will move at an unprecedented pace, and it will fundamentally transform every aspect of our lives – the fourth industrial revolution. This next stage of human evolution is predicted to be unlike anything that has been experienced in our collective history. To truly unlock this promise, it would require us to humanize the technology and the impact that it is already having on the society at large. However, today’s leaders are unable to evolve from the dogma that is centered around traditional, linear thinking. A way of decision-making that is optimized to tactically manage the industries of yesterday. With the pace of disruption accelerating at an unprecedented velocity, today’s leaders and decision-makers are ill-equipped to understand, embrace, and strategically shape the future. They will need a blueprint to architect the intelligent societies of the future and Kevin Brett’s Bionic Enterprise vision is a great step forward. Kevin recognizes that the fourth industrial revolution is about humanity itself and this revolution needs to center us first and architect the enterprises of the future around us with purpose and intentions around outcomes. In addition to human-centricity, Kevin sees this as a design problem and he proposes a paradigm shift in how intelligent technology solutions are conceived, built, and scaled. The Bionic Enterprise architecture, at its core, connects the human perspective and the technology perspective with a fusion perspective that, collectively, provides the framework that today’s leaders can utilize to create bionic technologies – human-centric intelligent technology solutions that are engaging, intelligent, and provide an immersive user experience. Additionally, Kevin lays out the characteristics map of the visionary leaders who would utilize cognitive capital, behavioral capital, and network capital to transform today’s enterprises into the future-ready enterprises that are hyper-connected, hyper-aware, and hyper-intelligent. It would have been much easier to take an academic position on this topic but instead, Kevin has applied his framework to himself that has resulted in this comprehensive, thoughtful, and practical architecture to help business leaders lead their organizations and join the fourth industrial revolution. ”

“From the first few sentences touching upon machine Empathy to the last line emphasizing the need for evolving our maturity and relationship to technology, this book not only touches upon concepts that are interesting but actually focuses on practices we as futurists must make central to our strategies and plans. Technologies have been built to solve problems. However, the experience we as users; be it customers, employees, technologists, solution providers, vendors have; needs to be the underpinning of such future endeavors and that is what Bionic enterprises are all about. Kevin has succinctly touched upon every aspect of the Bionic Enterprise Technology Stack and capability areas by laying the blueprint for us. I hope the adoption of the concepts in his framework become a reality sooner than later for benefit of all. ”
