ICYMI – Google made the bankruptcy auction winning $10M bid to acquire mails, calendar info, Teams Chats, documents, spreadsheets and other business data from the now defunct Spirit Airlines. I have two points to make here:
- One of the most valuable assets a company has is its business data. If you want to improve your business outcomes, invest in your data.
- Do not use your work laptop and email for personal purposes.
Note: The data will be anonymized before being handed over to Google *busts out laughing*. Sorry, I can’t write that with a straight face, because I’ve read this book before.
