Your data is your business. Is it supporting your strategy?

Algorithms, machine learning, generative AI. With the latest advancements in technology, data is taking center stage in organizations. But without a clear plan for how you're storing, integrating, and gaining value from that information, your company will be at risk—and fall behind.

If you read (or listen to) nothing else on setting a data strategy in your organization, listen to these ten articles. We've combed through hundreds of Harvard Business Review articles and selected the most important ones to help you improve your analytic and algorithmic capabilities, navigate digital transformation, and achieve competitive advantage in our hyperconnected world.

This book will inspire you to quantify the benefits of a digital transformation; discover opportunities for innovative, data-backed products and services; better understand and improve your customer experience; break down silos and share higher-quality information across your organization; identify areas susceptible to cyberattacks and data breaches; and ensure metrics aren't overshadowing strategic objectives.
