The Essential Need:
Humanistic technology management 

  • Humanities professionals now have access to technological tools that can significantly enhance their work and research.

  • However, the development of technologies serving humanistic and social sciences is predominantly driven by technologists, rather than by social leaders such as educators or researchers.

  • Achieving technological development aligned with humanistic goals requires leadership that deeply understands and prioritizes social and cultural objectives.

  • At the execution level, such development demands leaders with the capacity to manage technological processes while maintaining a strong grasp of both humanistic principles and technical knowledge.

  • Currently, there is no established system to guide humanities leaders and educators in integrating technological management into their fields.
