19Internet of Things The algorithms created by
Nests machine-learning expertsand the troves of
data generated by those algorithmsare just as
important as the sleek materials carefully
selected by its industrial designers. By tracking
its users and subtly influencing their behaviors,
Nest Learning Thermostat transcends its
pedestrian product category. Nest has similar
hopes for what has always been a prosaic device,
the smoke alarm. Yes, the Nest Protect does what
every similar device doesgoes off when smoke or
CO reaches dangerous levelsbut it does much
more, by using sensors to distinguish between
smoke and steam, Internet connectivity to tell
you where the danger is, a calculated tone of
voice to convey a personality, and warm lighting
to guide you in the darkness. In other words,
Nest isnt only about beautifying the thermostat
or adding features to the lowly smoke detector.

Nest CEO Fadell. Left unsaid is a grander

our attention to managing change and making

- Women now drive the global economy. Globally,
they control about 20 trillion in consumer
spending, and that figure could climb as high as
28 trillion in the next five years. Their 13
trillion in total yearly earnings could reach 18
trillion in the same period. In aggregate, women
represent a growth market bigger than China and
India combinedmore than twice as big in fact.
Given those numbers, it would be foolish to
ignore or underestimate the female consumer. And
yet many companies do just thateven ones that
are confidant that they have a winning strategy
when it comes to women. Consider Dells - Source Michael Silverstein and Kate Sayre, The
