Description: "The digital revolution is here. It's changing how work gets done, how industries are structured, and how people from all walks of life work, behave, and relate to each other. To thrive in a world driven by data and powered by algorithms, we must learn to see, think, and act in new ways. We need to develop a digital mindset. But what does that mean?

This book introduces three approaches--collaboration, computation, and change--that you need for a digital mindset, and the perspectives and actions within each approach that will enable you to develop the digital skills you need"--
