About the Author


Daryl Shelby has spent over two decades reading to live audiences — twenty-two years of knowing what makes people lean in versus tune out. That instinct now runs his day job in healthcare operations, watching automation reshape what “valuable work” means in real time. The Human Premium is the book that instinct produced. Daryl narrated the audiobook himself.
