Description

Instead of slowing down and ossifying like many big companies, Amazon, Google, Facebook, and Microsoft are only getting stronger as they get larger. Their secret? An enthusiastic embrace of workplace technology that's allowed them to remain nimble and inventive despite their size and age.

The tech giants use internal technology to minimize the time their employees spend supporting existing products - they give their employees the chance to dream up their next new business. They then put new ideas through well-honed processes meant to bring the best to life. By looking deep into the tech giants, as speaker Alex Kantrowitz did in his newly released book, Always Day One, we see the big picture strategy driving the world's most advanced digital workplaces.
