Workato’s CEO Introduces Readers to a New Era in Automation with Upcoming Debut Book

Vijay Tella’s first book, “The New Automation Mindset” outlines the three principles of Automation: Process, Growth, and Scale Mindsets

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Workato, the leading enterprise integration and automation platform, together with Wiley, a global leader in publishing, research, and education, today announced the upcoming industry-focused book, The New Automation Mindset. The book, authored by Workato CEO, Vijay Tella, former Gartner analyst Massimo Pezzini, and HubSpot VP Platform Ecosystem, Scott Brinker, reveals the mindset behind the success of category-defining businesses that harness AI and automation. It then provides the blueprint for how company leaders can bring this mindset to life in their own organization. Pre-orders are currently open and the book will be available on August 29th, wherever books are sold.

The New Automation Mindset will take an in-depth look at how technologies like generative AI, and low-code, cloud-native automation have propelled organizations into this new digital era. But, without a new mindset and unique blueprint, the reality is that no technology – not even AI – will break loose the stalled digital transformation movement. The book outlines the mindset and blueprint for CEOs, CIOs, and other business and technology leaders who want to be a catalyst for change in their organizations. Readers will learn how to focus on the big picture, with an organizational growth mindset of embracing challenges, and treat change as a team sport to transform to a new level.

“The advent of generative AI revolution and low-code automation unlocks immense potential in enterprises, enabling people to innovate at the speed of their ideas. Although business transformation initiatives have primarily focused on technology, the mindset with which we approach this new AI-driven democratization will be just as crucial in the future,” said Vijay Tella, author, and CEO of Workato. “The New Automation Mindset is our effort to unveil how every organization can harness generative AI and automation to transform themselves.”
