The Organisation of Tomorrow - Available Now!

My latest article:

Earlier this year, I completed my PhD at the University of Technology Sydney. Undertaking a PhD was a great experience and an intellectual challenge. However, academic dissertations are dry and difficult to read. Therefore, I turned my thesis into an easy-to-read-and-digest management book: The Organisation of Tomorrow.

This book is now available. In the book, I discuss how AI, blockchain and analytics turn your business into a data organisation. If you are interested in the book, you can read a preview of the book here, or you can purchase the book on Amazon.

The key message underlying this book is that data-driven organisations that incorporate big data analytics, blockchain and AI will stand the best chance to remain competitive in the future.
