A powerful guide to building a data-centric corporate culture that unleashes talent and improves engagement Amazon delights customers with recommendations that are spot on. Google amazes us by generating answers before we've even finished asking a question. These companies know who we are and what we want. The key to their magic is Big Data. Personalizing the consumer experience with the collection and analysis of consumer data is widely recognized as one of the biggest business opportunities of the 21st century. But there is a flip side to this that has largely been missed. What if we were able to use data about employees to personalize and customize their experience - to increase their engagement, help them learn faster on the job, and figure out which teams they should be on? In this book, Leerom and his colleagues outline the six principles they've used to decode work and unlock the maximum potential of their talent, and share success stories from other organizations that have embraced this approach. The Decoded Company is an actionable blueprint for any company that wants the best from its people, and isn't afraid of radical approaches to get it. Leerom Segal is the president and CEO of Klick and has been named "Entrepreneur of the Year" by the Business Development Bank of Canada, won the "Young Entrepreneur of the Year" award from Ernst and Young, and was named to Profit Magazine's Hall of Fame as the youngest CEO ever to lead a nonprofit company.

The Decoded Company

El día que Barack Obama anunció su candidatura para la presidencia de Estados Unidos su grupo en Facebook contaba ya con más de 62.000 miembros. El día en el que fue elegido, su página web tenía más de 13 millones de subscriptores y el 67% de la recaudación para su campaña se había conseguido a través de Internet. Cualquier dato de recaudación, movilización o apoyo a Obama no hace más que poner en evidencia el éxito obtenido por su campaña de comunicación social, cuya responsable fue Rahaf Harfoush. Yes we did narra la estrategia y tácticas seguidas a través de las distintas redes sociales para conseguir movilizar a todo un ejército de colaboradores y donantes e implicarlos en esa misma campaña electoral. Un ejemplo útil y práctico sobre cómo construir una marca a través de las nuevas herramientas de comunicación.

Yes We Did

FOREWORD by Don Tapscott, author of Wikinomics and Grown Up Digital The Obama campaign’s mastery of social media for everything from fundraising to volunteer coordination has been widely reported. Until now, there hasn’t been an in-depth analysis of how they did it. In Yes We Did, new media strategist and campaign headquarters volunteer Rahaf Harfoush gives us a behind the-scenes look at the campaign’s use of technology, from its earliest days through election night. She reveals strategic insights organizations can apply to their own brands. Discover how unwavering strategic vision and collaborative technologies—email, blogs, social networks, Twitter, and SMS messaging—empowered a formidable online community to help elect the world’s first “digital” President.
