  Go ahead, be skeptical about big data. The author was-at first. When the term "big data" first came on the scene, bestselling author Tom Davenport (Competing on Analytics, Analytics at Work) thought it was just another example of technology hype. But his research in the years that followed changed his mind. Now, in clear, conversational language, Davenport explains what big data means-and why everyone in business needs to know about it. Big Data at Work covers all the bases: what big data means from a technical, consumer, and management perspective; what its opportunities and costs are; where it can have real business impact; and which aspects of this hot topic have been oversold. This book will help you understand: Why big data is important to you and your organization; What technology you need to manage it; How big data could change your job, your company, and your industry; How to hire, rent, or develop the kinds of people who make big data work; The key success factors in implementing any big data project; How big data is leading to a new approach to managing analytics. With dozens of company examples, including UPS, GE, Amazon, United Healthcare, Citigroup, and many others, this book will help you seize all opportunities-from improving decisions, products, and services to strengthening customer relationships. It will show you how to put big data to work in your own organization so that you too can harness the power of this ever-evolving new resource.

Be the leader that creates clarity, calm, and greater capacity.In Thoughtload, New York Times bestselling author and team effectiveness advisor Liane Davey tackles today’s most pressing management challenges: over-burdened systems, burned-out teams, and declining results. However, contrary to conventional wisdom, Davey argues that the problem is not with out-sized workloads.

Davey then gives you powerful tools you can use as a leader to coach your team members to manage thoughtload for themselves. Doing so, you and your team will feel more focused, less burnt out, and finally free to do more great work.Backed by science and written with the time- and energy-strapped manager in mind, Thoughtload is Liane Davey’s potent handbook for a better way to lead.

  You’re holding it all together on the surface, but inside, there’s a quiet fire smoldering. The relentless pursuit of career success, the weight of caregiving expectations, and the shadow of unequal pay burn your wick down, leaving you on the brink of exhaustion.
  
  Women have been conditioned to handle it all, but that invisible Superwoman cape often feels like a noose. Society’s expectations are high, and prioritizing yourself is undervalued. How long can we burn at both ends before we disappear in the flames?
  
  Lynn Blades, an experienced executive leadership coach, has spent decades advising women in Fortune 500 companies and independent businesses. Her message is clear: it’s time to rewrite the rules. Lynn offers practical tools to help women recognize and prevent burnout and empower them to reclaim their lives—strategies like saying no, practicing guilt-free self-care, and silencing self-doubt.
  
  This book is a call to action. When women burn out, the world suffers. The Quiet Burn proves that prioritizing well-being isn’t just self-care; it’s revolutionary. It’s time to demand more, to extinguish burnout, and to build a life in which you thrive boldly and unapologetically on your terms.

  The Little Book of Common Sense Investing is the classic guide to getting smart about the market. Legendary mutual fund pioneer John C. Bogle reveals his key to getting more out of investing: low-cost index funds. Bogle describes the simplest and most effective investment strategy for building wealth over the long term: buy and hold, at very low cost, a mutual fund that tracks a broad stock market Index such as the S&P 500. 
   
   
   
  While the stock market has tumbled and then soared since the first edition of Little Book of Common Sense was published in April 2007, Bogle's investment principles have endured and served investors well. This tenth anniversary edition includes updated data and new information but maintains the same long-term perspective as in its predecessor. Bogle has also added two new chapters designed to provide further guidance to investors: one on asset allocation, the other on retirement investing. 
   
   
   
  A portfolio focused on index funds is the only investment that effectively guarantees your fair share of stock market returns. Bogle shows you how to make index investing work for you and help you achieve your financial goals, and finds support from some of the world's best financial minds, including Warren Buffett, Benjamin Graham, Paul Samuelson, Burton Malkiel, Yale's David Swensen, Cliff Asness of AQR, and many others.
