“Agentic Intelligence: Strategy at the Speed of Data” by Manish Sood and Venkat Venkatraman is released with Forbes Books.
NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, September 15, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — “Agentic Intelligence: Strategy at the Speed of Data” by Manish Sood and Venkat Venkatraman is now available on Amazon and at major booksellers. The book is published with Forbes Books, the exclusive business book publishing imprint of Forbes.
Artificial intelligence has captured the world’s attention, but many organizations continue to struggle to translate its promise into lasting business value. In “Agentic Intelligence: Strategy at the Speed of Data,” technology entrepreneur Manish Sood and renowned digital strategy scholar Venkat Venkatraman argue that the next era of competitive advantage will belong to the companies that redesign how humans and intelligent machines work together through trusted, connected, real-time data.
Leveraging their combined decades of enterprise leadership, academic research, and experience helping global organizations modernize their data foundations, the authors introduce the concept of agentic intelligence—a new operating model in which people and AI function as collaborative agents, making faster, smarter, and more informed decisions together. Their work demonstrates how organizations can build systems that amplify human judgment while enabling intelligent technologies to act with enhanced velocity, context, and precision.
Organized around three strategic pillars—Strategic Intent, Invest to Monetize, and Implement to Win—“Agentic Intelligence” presents 10 rules for unifying fragmented data, establishing trust across their organizations, modernizing governance, developing AI-ready workforces, and creating operating models capable of responding at the speed of today’s markets. The result is the capability to move beyond experimentation and build organizations where intelligence continuously fuels action, innovation, and competitive advantage.
“If you’re worried you’ll be overwhelmed with complex technical jargon, don’t be,” Sood said. “This is not a book for engineers, coders, data scientists, or algorithm experts. It’s intended for business leaders, future business professionals, and anyone whose role is heavily influenced by data and AI. Our goal is to show you how your professional skills can be enhanced and amplified by the power of data and AI.”
