Book excerpt: Where do you work? We may answer this question with a physical location... but increasingly that is either only a partial truth, impossible to answer or just irrelevant. In this fascinating, highly personal investigation into work, Paul Miller challenges us rethink how and where we work today. Blending his own working career experiences, with those of organizations, Miller says it is the 'digital' in the workplace that now defines and shapes our working lives. Building on compelling stories from well-known organizations, Miller explains in a powerful narrative how every aspect of work is being transformed. This is an essential exploration of modern and future work that we can all relate to personally. Addiction, disappointment, liberation, slavery, speed - 'The Digital Workplace' is a captivating manifesto for work that lingers in the head and the heart. Paul Miller is a technology and social entrepreneur. He is CEO and Founder of the Digital Workplace Forum and the Intranet Benchmarking Forum and has been at the heart of the work and technology revolution for the last decade. He is the host of IBF Live, a monthly intranet media show, and Executive Producer and host of the annual IBF 24, which features 24 hours of the world's best intranets plus thought-provoking discussion on how work is being redesigned through technology. He has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, and wrote the best-selling book Mobilising the Power of What You Know. After an early career as a business journalist and speech writer, he published the influential WAVE magazine in 1990 and established The Empowerment Group in 1992, pioneering new approaches to communication within major organizations. In 1993, he co-founded the Ideas Cafe, a regular innovation event, shaped along social software lines during the early days of the web. Paul was one of the leaders of the innovative 'Fathers and Daughters Weekends'. He lives in London and has two daughters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In recent years, tech companies such as Google and Facebook have rocked the world as they have seemingly revolutionized the culture of work. We've all heard stories of lounges outfitted with ping pong tables, kitchens with kombucha on tap, and other amenities that supposedly foster creative thinking. Nothing could seem further from earlier workplaces associated with a different revolution in capitalism: factories, in which employees are required to perform highly circumscribed tasks as quickly as possible to meet quotas--for next to no pay. However, as Moritz Altenried shows in The Digital Factory, these types of workplaces are not so far from the Googleplex as we might think. While recent accounts of the transformation of labor after the demise of the factory highlight the creative, communicative, immaterial, or artistic features of contemporary labor, Altenried uncovers the factory-like conditions in which many new digital workers perform their jobs. These workers, such as video game testers, social media content moderators, and Amazon fulfillment center workers, perform highly repetitive, unskilled tasks for low and often contingent wages. Based on more than five years of research in different sites using ethnography and interviews combined with an analysis of infrastructural technologies, Altenried's book gives us a first-hand account of many new forms of digital labor that drive contemporary capitalism. He shows that though today's factories might look and feel different than they did 150 years ago, they still follow the same logics and produce the same unequal outcomes"--

Book excerpt: How do today’s most successful tech companies—Amazon, Google, Facebook, Netflix, Tesla—design, develop, and deploy the products that have earned the love of literally billions of people around the world?

Whether you’re an early stage startup working to get to product/market fit, or a growth-stage company working to scale your product organization, or a large, long-established company trying to regain your ability to consistently deliver new value for your customers, INSPIRED will take you and your product organization to a new level of customer engagement, consistent innovation, and business success. Filled with the author’s own personal stories—and profiles of some of today’s most-successful product managers and technology-powered product companies, including Adobe, Apple, BBC, Google, Microsoft, and Netflix—INSPIRED will show you how to turn up the dial of your own product efforts, creating technology products your customers love. The first edition of INSPIRED, published ten years ago, established itself as the primary reference for technology product managers, and can be found on the shelves of nearly every successful technology product company worldwide. This thoroughly updated second edition shares the same objective of being the most valuable resource for technology product managers, yet it is completely new—sharing the latest practices and techniques of today’s most-successful tech product companies, and the men and women behind every great product.
