You Need SPEED...

Artificial Intelligence... The Internet of Things... The Cloud... Blockchain... The 4th Industrial Revolution? Beyond the buzzwords - how is technology changing business, culture, and our lives? This isn't science fiction - this is happening right now.

Aleksander Poniewierski's brilliant new book SPEED: No Limits in the Digital Era painlessly guides us into our new age of interconnectivity, making it easy to understand just how fast things are changing, and where we're headed. Employing a light automotive metaphor and providing historical context from our previous three Industrial Revolutions, the book is a great read - Alex knows his stuff! It's thoroughly researched as well, and includes commentary from leaders and experts from Google, Cisco Systems, Apple, IBM, EY, the European Commission, NATO, Tribal Planet, and Harvard.

The SPEED of the title is more than metaphorical. For Alex, it's an acronym illustrating his approach to navigating the new technological landscape. SPEED is

Security
Partnership
Emerging technologies
Economy
Digital transformation

The chapters each break down where we've been, where we are now, where we're going, and how we should get there, in light of these subjects. It is well written. Part of that lies in how well organized it is. And yet, the structure doesn't stifle the storytelling aspects of Alex's work - he entertains as he instructs, his authorial voice consistently mindful of keeping the attention of his reading/listening audience, even while relating occasionally dry information.

It was a pleasure to embody that voice for the Audiobook!

Please check out the new Audiobook for SPEED, narrated by yours truly - Mike Luoma - available now on Audible, AMAZON, and iTUNES.
