From technology, media, and retail to sport teams, government agencies, and financial institutions, learn the actual strategies and processes being used to learn about customers, improve manufacturing, spur innovation, improve safety, and so much more. Organized for easy dip-in navigation, each chapter follows the same structure to give you the information you need quickly.
