The CEO's Digital Survival Guide: A Practical Handbook to Navigating the Future by Nathan Whittacre offers invaluable insights for business leaders looking to improve their understanding of the new frontiers of technology. The book quickly proves itself to be an essential read for CEOs and business leaders by providing a solid foundation to build their understanding of the digital tools at their disposal, the nature of the contemporary online landscape, and the potential dangers that businesses need to be aware of. A key strength of this work is its accessibility. The author recognizes that it is essential for a 21st-century manager to understand the concepts being discussed whilst also acknowledging that achieving the level of specialist skills that people working in the digital space possess isn’t realistic.

It’s easy to feel overwhelmed when taking your first steps into the world of data management, IT, and cyber security as even the foundational concepts are intricately woven together. Nathan Whittacre has a gift for demystifying complicated topics and breaking down important principles in an understandable and actionable way. Throughout The CEO’s Digital Survival Guide, Whittacre uses engaging and relevant real-world examples. There are easy-to-understand explanations of the important issues facing businesses in the digital age. This grounds the work in practical reality for any CEO determined to keep their business at the cutting edge. This book demonstrates that the move to digital information is a profound shift in the corporate world, and every business needs to adapt to the change. This will be significantly easier for leaders who have taken the time to read this book, and I highly recommend it.
