Capturing the views of over 300 business leaders on the common causes of digital transformation failure, Data Culture sets out an actionable framework to help organisations of all sizes to build successful data-driven cultures. After working as a senior executive in one of the UK s leading manufacturers, Alex Vail and a group of Chief Technology Officers conducted several research projects, including the largest ever study into the country s corporate AI capabilities. Through workshops, round tables, surveys and interviews with hundreds of C-suite technology, digital and AI leaders from FTSE350 companies, they explored why digital transformations succeed or fail; the data dependency of organisations; and how data-literate senior decision-makers really are. What emerged from the research was a clear set of success factors, grounded in mindset and behaviour elements, which have been used to create a framework that any company can follow, regardless of their size or complexity, to guarantee successful technology transformations. This book captures all of the research in an easy-to-follow guide packed with relatable scenarios of real-world technology deployment and valuable opinions from people at the coal-face of digital transformation.

Poppy a Alex, Alex a Poppy. Nemají vlastně vůbec nic společného. Ona je jak z divokých vajec, on nosí béžové kalhoty. Ona má neuhasitelnou touhu cestovat, on radši sedí doma s knížkou. Ale nějak se stalo, že od jisté památné společné jízdy domů ze studií jsou z nich nejlepší kamarádi. Většinu času žije každý jinde – ona v New Yorku, on v jejich rodném městečku –, ale už deset let spolu každý jezdí rok na úžasnou dovolenou. Nebo spíš jezdili. Před dvěma lety se totiž všechno zhroutilo a oni spolu od té doby nepromluvili. Poppy má vlastně všechno, co by chtěla, ale ničí ji rutina. Když se jí někdo zeptá, kdy byla naposledy doopravdy šťastná, ví naprosto jistě, že to bylo na té poslední nešťastné dovolené s Alexem. A tak se rozhodne svého bývalého nejlepšího kamaráda přesvědčit, že by si spolu měli vyjet ještě jednou a všechno si vysvětlit a vyříkat. Alex jako zázrakem souhlasí – a ona má teď týden na to, aby všechno napravila. Kéž by se ale mohla vyhnout jedné jediné věci, která visela ve vzduchu už od začátku jejich přátelství! Co by se asi tak mohlo pokazit?

SHORTLISTED FOR THE EDWARD STANFORD TRAVEL BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD 2023* NOW A MAJOR DOCUMENTARY SERIES ON ALL 4 *‘This is a fabulous adventure – reckless, insanely ambitious and filled with sweat, tears and laughter ... irresistible reading.’ Joanna Lumley‘Alex Bescoby weaves travel, adventure, history and the contemporary together like no one else. His great gift is to take us on a journey through past and present. #39; Dan Snow_______________________________________________________________‘A journey that I don’t think could be made again today’. It was this comment by Sir David Attenborough on the fiftieth anniversary of the iconic First Overland expedition that became an irresistible challenge for filmmaker and adventurer Alex Bescoby.In 1955, Attenborough, then a young TV producer, was approached by six recent university graduates determined to drive the entire length of ‘Eurasia’, from London to Singapore. It was the unclimbed Everest of motoring – many had tried, none had succeeded. Sensing this time might be different, Attenborough gave the expedition enough film reel to cover their attempt. The 19,000-mile journey completed by Tim Slessor and the team captivated a nation emerging from postwar austerity. Tim’s book, The First Overland, soon became the bible of the overlanding religion. Inspired by the First Overland, Alex made contact with now eighty-six-year-old Tim and together they planned an epic recreation of the original trip, this time from Singapore to London. Their goal was to complete the legendary journey started more than sixty years ago in the original Land Rover. In awe of the unstoppable Tim, and haunted by his own grandfather’s declining health, Alex and his team soon find themselves battling rough roads, breakdowns and Oxford’s constantly leaky roof to discover a world changed for the better – and worse – since the first expedition.

* NOW A MAJOR DOCUMENTARY SERIES ON ALL 4 *‘This is a fabulous adventure – reckless, insanely ambitious and filled with sweat, tears and laughter ... irresistible reading.’ Joanna Lumley ‘Alex Bescoby weaves travel, adventure, history and the contemporary together like no one else. His great gift is to take us on a journey through past and present. By its end we have learned more about the world and ourselves.’ Dan Snow_______________________________________________________________‘A journey that I don’t think could be made again today’. It was this comment by Sir David Attenborough on the fiftieth anniversary of the iconic First Overland expedition that became an irresistible challenge for filmmaker and adventurer Alex Bescoby.In 1955, Attenborough, then a young TV producer, was approached by six recent university graduates determined to drive the entire length of ‘Eurasia’, from London to Singapore. It was the unclimbed Everest of motoring – many had tried, none had succeeded. Sensing this time might be different, Attenborough gave the expedition enough film reel to cover their attempt. The 19,000-mile journey completed by Tim Slessor and the team captivated a nation emerging from postwar austerity. Tim’s book, The First Overland, soon became the bible of the overlanding religion.Inspired by the First Overland, Alex made contact with now eighty-six-year-old Tim and together they planned an epic recreation of the original trip, this time from Singapore to London. Their goal was to complete the legendary journey started more than sixty years ago in the original ‘Oxford’ Land Rover.In awe of the unstoppable Tim, and haunted by his own grandfather’s declining health, Alex and his team soon find themselves battling rough roads, breakdowns and Oxford’s constantly leaky roof to discover a world changed for the better ­­– and worse – since the first expedition.
