Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The must-read summary of Don Tapscott, Alex Lowy and David Ticoll's book: "Blueprint To The Digital Economy: Creating Wealth in the Era of E-Business". This complete summary of the ideas from Don Tapscott, Alex Lowy and David Ticoll's book "Blueprint To The Digital Economy" shows that the digital economy – computers teamed with communication networks – has the potential to transform almost every consumer and business activity. These changes are having the effect of forcing organizations to amend notions and practices about the nature of competition, the process by which wealth is created and even the nature of the firm itself. In short, the digital economy changes every assumption ever made in business. It is also allowing completely new commercial entities – like e-business communities which use the digital economy to conduct commercial transactions and collaborate to create new wealth – to flourish and grow like never before. And it is forcing established firms to enter into partnerships and alliances with entirely different and disparate business entities. Clearly, the digital economy opens enormous possibilities and opportunities. The challenge lies in turning the possible into the probable and then into the actual. Added-value of this summary: • Save time • Understand the key concepts • Increase your business knowledge To learn more, read "Blueprint to the Digital Economy" and discover the perfect guide to getting acquainted with the rules of the digital economy.

Book The Global Digital Economy  A Comparative Policy Analysis   Student Edition

Download or read book The Global Digital Economy A Comparative Policy Analysis Student Edition written by Holroyd, Carin and published by Cambria Press. This book was released on 2015-01-08 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Note: this is an abridged version of the original book with references removed. The complete edition is also available. This book explores the intersection of public policy and the fast changing digital media economy. Over the last 20 years, digital technologies and digital content have revolutionized many aspects of social, economic and political life around the world. Governments, locked into the policies and programs of the traditional economy, are struggling to respond to this dynamic and commercially unique global ecosystem. This study examines the nature and extent of the digital economy, looking at both the commercial diversity within the sector and the different digital implementations across the world. While the digital engagement of North America is well known, the scale and intensity of digital growth in East Asia is not fully understood not are the transformative changes occurring in parts of Africa. The digital world is marked by the unexpected and rapid re-orientation of economic, social, cultural and political affairs. The digitization of work, for example, has already brought major disruptions within national economies. Governments are struggling to respond, in part because of pressures from the traditional industrial and resource sectors but also because of the unique, somewhat anarchistic nature of the digital content industry. The Global Digital Economy provides a profile of the global digital environment, reviews current government digital policies (with an emphasis on innovative strategies), and offers policy suggestions for national and subnational governments. Countries that respond creatively to the digital economy--like Taiwan, South Korea, Finland and Israel--stand to prosper from the anticipated accelerated growth of the sector. Those nations that struggle to keep pace with the digital infrastructure needs of the new economy and with the potential for employment and business creation stand to fall behind economically. This book provides a policy roadmap for the digital economy and identifies the risks and opportunities of this core sector in the twenty-first-century economy.

Book Uberworked and Underpaid

Download or read book Uberworked and Underpaid written by Trebor Scholz and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the rise of digital labor. Companies like Uber and Amazon Mechanical Turk promise autonomy, choice, and flexibility. One of network culture's toughest critics, Trebor Scholz chronicles the work of workers in the "sharing economy," and the free labor on sites like Facebook, to take these myths apart. In this rich, accessible, and provocative book, Scholz exposes the uncaring reality of contingent digital work, which is thriving at the expense of employment and worker rights. The book is meant to inspire readers to join the growing number of worker-owned "platform cooperatives," rethink unions, and build a better future of work. A call to action, loud and clear, Uberworked and Underpaid shows that it is time to stop wage theft and "crowd fleecing," rethink wealth distribution, and address the urgent question of how digital labor should be regulated and how workers from Berlin, Barcelona, Seattle, and São Paulo can act in solidarity to defend their rights.

Book The Naked Corporation

Download or read book The Naked Corporation written by Don Tapscott and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2003-10-07 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to the world of the naked corporation. Transparency is revolutionizing every aspect of our economy and its industries and forcing firms to rethink their fundamental values. We are in an extraordinary age where businesses must make themselves clearly visible to shareholders, customers, employees, partners, and society. Financial data, employee grievances, internal memos, environmental disasters, product weaknesses, international protests, scandals and policies, good news and bad; all can be seen by anyone who knows where to look. Don Tapscott, bestselling author and one of the most sought after strategists and speakers in the business world, is famous for seeing into the future and pointing out both its forest and its trees. David Ticoll, visionary researcher, columnist, and consultant, has identified countless breakthrough trends at the intersection of technology and business strategy. These two longtime collaborators now offer a brilliant guide to the new age of openness. In The Naked Corporation, they explain how the new transparency has caused a power shift toward customers, employees, shareholders, and other stakeholders; how and where information has exploded; and how corporations across many industries have seized on transparency not as a challenge but as an opportunity. Drawing on such examples as Shell Oil’s reinvention of itself as an environmentally focused business, to Johnson & Johnson’s longstanding and carefully nurtured reputation as a company worthy of trust—as well as little-known examples from pharmaceuticals, insurance, high technology, and financial services—Tapscott and Ticoll offer invaluable advice on how to lead the new age, rather than simply react to it. The Naked Corporation is a book for managers, employees, investors, customers, and anyone who cares about the future of the corporation and society.

Book Economic Analysis of the Digital Economy

Download or read book Economic Analysis of the Digital Economy written by Avi Goldfarb and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-05-08 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a small and growing literature that explores the impact of digitization in a variety of contexts, but its economic consequences, surprisingly, remain poorly understood. This volume aims to set the agenda for research in the economics of digitization, with each chapter identifying a promising area of research. "Economics of Digitization "identifies urgent topics with research already underway that warrant further exploration from economists. In addition to the growing importance of digitization itself, digital technologies have some features that suggest that many well-studied economic models may not apply and, indeed, so many aspects of the digital economy throw normal economics in a loop. "Economics of Digitization" will be one of the first to focus on the economic implications of digitization and to bring together leading scholars in the economics of digitization to explore emerging research.

Book Summary  Digital Capital   Don Tapscott  David Ticoll and Alex Lowy

Download or read book Summary Digital Capital Don Tapscott David Ticoll and Alex Lowy written by BusinessNews Publishing and published by Must Read Summaries. This book was released on 2013-02-15 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work offers a summary of the book “DIGITAL CAPITAL: Harnessing the Power of Business Webs by Don Tapscott, David Ticoll and Alex Lowy”. The central challenge of business in the digital economy is to form and build reserves of digital capital by harnessing the power of business webs. Specifically, b-webs allow you to gain human capital without having to own it, to access customer capital through the formation of mutual relationships and to benefit form the structural capital other parties provide. To that end, there are now five well established b-web models which are proving to be successful in the creation of digital capital: • Agoras – Open marketplaces where people come together to discover prices • Aggregations – Online intermediaries who organize and coordinate a marketplace • Value Chains – Integrators who manage the supply chain efficiently • Alliances – Pools of knowledge shared by many working towards a common goal • Distributive Networks – The backbone and infrastructure systems of the digital economy In the years ahead, participation in b-webs will become an imperative rather than an option. In the era of digital customers, only those firms which are leading or actively participating in a b-web will have a sustainable competitive advantage.

This book was released on 2008-11-16 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SELECTED AS A 2008 BEST BUSINESS BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE ECONOMIST The Net Generation Has Arrived. Are you ready for it? Chances are you know a person between the ages of 11 and 30. You've seen them doing five things at once: texting friends, downloading music, uploading videos, watching a movie on a two-inch screen, and doing who-knows-what on Facebook or MySpace. They're the first generation to have literally grown up digital--and they're part of a global cultural phenomenon that's here to stay. The bottom line is this: If you understand the Net Generation, you will understand the future. If you're a Baby Boomer or Gen-Xer: This is your field guide. A fascinating inside look at the Net Generation, Grown Up Digital is inspired by a $4 million private research study. New York Times bestselling author Don Tapscott has surveyed more than 11,000 young people. Instead of a bunch of spoiled “screenagers” with short attention spans and zero social skills, he discovered a remarkably bright community which has developed revolutionary new ways of thinking, interacting, working, and socializing. Grown Up Digital reveals: How the brain of the Net Generation processes information Seven ways to attract and engage young talent in the workforce Seven guidelines for educators to tap the Net Gen potential Parenting 2.0: There's no place like the new home Citizen Net: How young people and the Internet are transforming democracy Today's young people are using technology in ways you could never imagine. Instead of passively watching television, the “Net Geners” are actively participating in the distribution of entertainment and information. For the first time in history, youth are the authorities on something really important. And they're changing every aspect of our society-from the workplace to the marketplace, from the classroom to the living room, from the voting booth to the Oval Office. The Digital Age is here. The Net Generation has arrived. Meet the future.
