    Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. We have a ton of DATA, now how do we LEVERAGE it?The data your company generates is enormously valuable. But without the right strategy, you'll never unlock that value - and you might even put your company at risk.Data Leverage is the first comprehensive book on the exploding opportunity of corporate data partnerships. The authors, Christian and Jay Ward, are experts -- a business strategist and a lawyer who, together, have executed hundreds of deals.This book has everything you need to make money from data, starting with the DataSmart Method(TM), a four-step process for building your data partnership strategy. You'll learn: A comprehensive process to >identify your data assets - both the data your company generates and the data about your company that others maintain.A systematic way to value those assets - so you can tell whether it makes more sense to barter them for other valuable data or build them into million-dollar revenue streams.A complete list of deal structures for data partnerships, including how to gain partners for innovative data streams and how to distribute data through large platforms and channels.An analysis of prudent measures you can take to protect your data, with detailed descriptions of how to write contracts and comply with regulations like Europe's GDPR.This book will open your eyes to the power of data with detailed descriptions of real deals. You'll see how companies turned unusual data streams - like aerial photographs of retailers' parking lots, results of customer sales calls, and even their own accounts receivable data - into valuable assets that boosted their companies' bottom lines.Your company is churning out data every day. Your marketing department is generating ads and leads; your HR department is evaluating resumes; your IT group is tracking customer databases and product information. But without a strategy, it's just a bunch of ones and zeroes. To leverage that data, you need to find the right partners, make the right deals, maintain privacy controls, and build contracts that will keep you safe and legal. You'll need the detailed advice in this book as you negotiate with big platforms like Bloomberg, Thomson-Reuters, Dun & Bradstreet, and Amazon.Don't build data partnerships without a detailed map. Data Leverage is the indispensable reference you need to plan for and negotiate data deals. Keep it close by, and you can get started building whole new sources of value for your company with the data you're generating every single day.…

They show how to choose text and develop sermons that address racism, ecology, and other major ethical issues of our time. Many pastors will refer to this volume again and again for its outstanding exegesis of crucial prophetic text.…

    Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. At some point we all wonder, Why me? We are all destined to confront pain in our lives. Some of us experience unspeakable tragedy while others are subject to ridicule, discrimination, mockery-even violence. At times, even the ones we love the most treat us with scorn and disrespect. Let's face it. We live in a hostile world where imperfect people develop imperfect systems. We all endure difficulties at no fault of our own, turning us each into victims. But have you noticed how some people rise above their victimization while others sink into mental and spiritual defeat? Despite similar circumstances, some people thrive while others wither away. In Zero Victim, author and corporate executive James Ward shows how repeated victimization destroys your positive outlook by permanently creating negative memories and damaged emotions. He exposes victimization as the real problem-not your set of unfortunate circumstances. In this revolutionary book, Ward shows you how to develop a programmed mind-set to overcome injustice and recognize victory in every situation. His revolutionary Zero Victim Mentality will set you free from your days of fear, depression, and discouragement. James E. Ward Jr. is an author, musician, and former corporate executive who speaks nationally on cultural and spiritual issues. Ward holds a Master of Divinity degree and resides outside of Chicago with his wife and two children.…

    Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. As the nation watched the protests, riots, and civil unrest unfold during the summer of 2020, pastor James E. Ward, Jr.'s seminal message was heard from coast-to-coast on local airwaves to CNN. On national live television, he called for America to address a spiritual and moral law crisis to heal and reconcile the country. He warned Americans to push away victimhood identities and develop a new attitude in Christ. The Zero Victim message is one that James has been preaching, teaching, and writing about for years. Today, his message takes on new meaning for a generation of Americans who are hurting and seeking real and lasting change in our culture. His words will set you free from fear, anxiety, depression, and discouragement.…

    Paperback. Zustand: Good. This is a comprehensive and astute interpretive study of the prophetic tradition of ancient Israel. Ward interprets the whole of the books of Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and the Twelve Prophets, placing the religious/theological message of these prophets into its most probable historical context. But he also deals with the socioeconomic world of Israael's prophets, so that readers are able to confront the message, the ideas, of the prophets in relation to the larger realities through which the people and the prophets were living.…

    Hardback. Zustand: Good. This wonderfully quirky book will change the way you look at your desk forever with stories of accidental genius, bitter rivalries, and an appreciation for everyday objects, like the humble but perfectly designed paper clip and the utilitarian, irreplaceable pencil. How many of humanity's brightest ideas started out on a scrap of paper, a Post-It, or in the margins of a notebook? In a delightfully witty and fresh voice, James Ward--cofounder of the Boring Conference and collector of the arcane--explores the secret histories of deskbound supplies, from pencils to fluorescent ink, and the gleaming reams of white paper we all take for granted, encouraging a deeper appreciation and fascination for the things that surround us each day. In the spirit of The Evolution of Useful Things and A History of the World in 100 Objects, Ward transforms the mundane into stories of invention, discovery, and even awe.
