Elad Inbar RobotLAB CEO’s Essential Guide to Practical Robotics and Automation ROI
Every business leader faces the same pressure: permanent labor shortages, rising operational costs, and relentless demands to deliver more with less. Traditional solutions—hiring more staff, increasing wages, extending hours—no longer work when the workers simply aren't available.
Meanwhile, robotics coverage oscillates between Hollywood spectacle and venture capital hype. Humanoid demonstrations go viral. Tech conferences showcase experimental prototypes. Industry publications breathlessly predict the automated future.
But what operators actually need isn't another promise about tomorrow. They need robots that work today. Robots that integrate into existing workflows. Robots that generate measurable ROI within months, not years. Robots that pay for themselves.
That's exactly what "Robots for Business Leaders: Robots That Pay for Themselves" delivers.
Written by Elad Inbar, CEO of RobotLAB and a nearly two-decade veteran of commercial robotics deployment, this book is a practical field guide to using physical AI and automation to create cleaner, faster, safer, and more profitable operations—workflow by workflow, industry by industry.
Elad's previous book, "Our Robotics Future" introduced readers to the transformative potential of robotics and automation. It painted the big picture: where the technology was heading, why it mattered, and what it meant for business and society.
The new book answers a different, more urgent question: What do robots do—and how do I deploy them successfully in my business?
"Robots for Business Leaders" takes the conversation from curiosity and concepts to concrete outcomes and deployment. It's the shift from understanding robotics in theory to implementing automation in practice. For executives, operators, and business owners ready to move beyond exploration and into execution, this is the playbook.
This book speaks directly to three critical audiences:
You built your business through smart decisions and calculated risks. Now you're watching labor costs consume profitability, service quality fluctuate with staffing availability, and competitors explore automation while you evaluate options.
You carry responsibility for day-to-day performance. You see the staffing gaps, manage the overtime budgets, field the customer complaints, and absorb the pressure when operations break down.
You evaluate capital investments, approve strategic initiatives, and balance short-term financial performance with long-term competitive positioning.
Before deploying any robot, you need the right mental model and analytical framework. Part 1 establishes both:
Part 2 is organized by industry, allowing you to walk away with an actionable plan. Industries covered include:
Successfully deploying one robot is valuable. Building a scalable automation strategy is transformative. Part 3 shows you how to move from pilot projects to enterprise-wide competitive advantage and managing the workforce transition.
The title isn't marketing rhetoric—it's a precise operational statement. When robotics implementations succeed, they generate measurable financial returns:
The future of work is already here. The businesses that thrive will be those whose leaders understand how to deploy automation intelligently.
