Exponential Theory - Aaron D. Bare - Bog - Morgan James Publishing llc - Plusbog.dk

​"A Blueprint for Future Entrepreneurs" -Daymond John, Shark Tank Investor "Innovating Through Extreme Uncertainty" -Ash Maurya, Lean Canvas Creator​ According to Steve Jobs, “Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.” The rise of digital technology in business has made this statement truer now more than ever. Today, businesses can be created, marketed, and ready to interact with customers in the blink of an eye, with nothing more than an internet connection! This accelerated pace of business is wreaking havoc on companies that are “too big to fail,” sometimes in a matter of months. Any company or leader that doesn''t move at an exponential pace will be crushed by new, massively transformative organizations that are invading new industries every day. Thankfully, guides like Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, and Elon Musk continue to provide us a roadmap for navigating this exponential horizon. Exponential Theory provides ten keys of exponential leadership in order to solve climate change, social imbalances, and other wicked problems. It is time for a new generation of leadership—one that is purposeful, conscious, digital, and above all, exponential.

A Wishful Eye - D L Mcintyre - Bog - Morgan James Publishing llc - Plusbog.dk

A Wishful Eye is a sweeping tale set in the United States during the antebellum years—when Christians took unpopular stands and engaged in illegal activity to care for the “least of these.” In the years before the Civil War, abolitionists were considered radicals by the majority of Americans.

Their stories have not been told until now. Perfect for historical fiction lovers, A Wishful Eye brings to light little-known facts about the people and events in Kentucky and the Ohio River Valley region during this era.

Matters of Life and Data - Charles D Morgan - Bog - Morgan James Publishing llc - Plusbog.dk

“I didn’t set out to become a collector of your and your neighbors’ information. When I was growing up, nobody but egghead scientists talked about ‘data.’ It was the mechanical age, and I was a gadget geek, taking apart my cousin’s toys and trying to put them back together again. I was especially crazy about cars and engines, and had it not been for a fateful encounter during college recruiting season, I might’ve lived my life as a race car mechanic instead of learning about computers at IBM. As it turned out, pursuing Big Data allowed me the resources to become a professional race car driver on the side, competing against the likes of Paul Newman, who makes appearances in these pages as well. “Such are the wonders of this journey we’re all on. Mine has taken me from the frontier of western Arkansas, where my ancestors owned a hardware store selling iron tools to westbound travelers, to the frontier of the digital age, where room-size computers have become eclipsed by the power of smart phones. And in a sense, the story you’re about to read isn’t so different from those of the colorful adventurers who stocked up their wagons at my family’s hardware emporium and headed west to make their fortunes. Data mining is the new gold rush, and we were there at first strike, dragging with us all our human frailties and foibles. In this book’s cast of characters you’ll find ambition, arrogance, jealousy, pride, fear, recklessness, anger, lust, viciousness, greed, revenge, betrayal, and then some." “It is a messy story. In the big picture, this could be called a narrative of America since World War II. But in the micro telling, think of it this way: The man who opened your lives to Big Data finally bares his own.”
