Not only does he understand the data and how best to derive information from it, but he's also spot on when it comes to broader business and business culture issues that compromise the promise that analytics can deliver.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently I was a participant in a conversation / brainstorming session and someone else proclaimed, "If your competition is doing it, you have to do it too." As I bit my tongue I thought, "My Gawd, NO! Me-too isn't a viable strategy. Follow the blind leading the blind? No way!"  However, that does raise the question: Who is your competition?]]></description>

Perhaps you recognize Mr. Pink from one of his previous top-selling efforts, "Drive" or "A Whole New Mind"?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As is the American pop-media tradition, there has been plenty of Monday morning quarterbacking going on over the Super Bowl commercials. Did you, like me, think the VW commercial was going to be for tourism in Jamaica? Or what about the Ram truck commercial? Inspiring or too dark and murky? Or what about the general lack of appreciation for viewing context?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Luck favors the prepared, as well as those who keep their eyes and ears open for "opportunities". The truth be told I consider myself quite fortunate to have made time for Steve Papa's appearance at Princeton University yesterday afternoon. Aside from being a graduate of Princeton, Papa was also one of the founders of Endeca Technologies. In last 2011, Endeca was acquired by Oracle for around $1.1 billion.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I've done it. You've done it. We've all done. We come up with (what has the potential to be) a great idea and then we pat ourselves on the back because we think we've done something amazing. As if one idea in the massive and endless universe of all ideas is somehow instantly special. Really? Think about it, what are the odds? It can't be that simple, can it? Well, it's not.]]></description>
