This will become particularly important as we use more technology and explore other planets in the future. If we move forward without keeping connection at our core, progress will be impeded and large segments of the population will be left behind. This book explains how AI in general, and blockchain in particular, can bridge our connection gap and help change the world for the better-by creating strong bonds of trust and unleashing the potential of all people, no matter where they live.Author Elizebeth Varghese starts off by explaining what blockchain really is, so those new to this technology can build a solid understanding before then diving into its greater potential as the new frontier of human connection. With this foundation built, she then moves on to explain the ways in which blockchain can be used to solve a number of problems, many of which will only grow with time, like supply and demand issues and issues with financial transactions that cross the globe. Varghese then moves onto what she sees as perhaps one of the greatest benefits of blockchain: its ability to create a new level of global trust based on accessible, immutable data. This new type of trust will become increasingly important as we continue to work across geographical boundaries.Varghese dives into great detail about the many benefits of blockchain, including how it:Recruits talent more efficiently and brings more diversity to the workplaceAllows for speedy connections to skills and talents needed by today's organizations to succeed and grow sustainablyHelps with various HR matters such as employee payroll, benefits administration, and insuranceLends itself to the gig economy and working with distributed teamsCan help create, verify, and protect the digital passports and digital resumes that will be so critical in the near futureWill call for a new type of leadership based on relationships and trustIf the growth of your business depends on people, you'll want to read this book.

—MARSHALL GOLDSMITH, New York Times #1 Bestselling Author of Triggers, Mojo, and What Got You Here Won’t Get You There
Humanity’s biggest need is to connect. This will become particularly important as we use more technology and explore other planets in the future. If we move forward without keeping connection at our core, progress will be impeded and large segments of the population will be left behind. This book explains how AI in general, and blockchain in particular, can bridge our connection gap and help change the world for the better—by creating strong bonds of trust and unleashing the potential of all people, no matter where they live.
Author Elizebeth Varghese starts off by explaining what blockchain really is, so those new to this technology can build a solid understanding before then diving into its greater potential as the new frontier of human connection. With this foundation built, she then moves on to explain the ways in which blockchain can be used to solve a number of problems, many of which will only grow with time, like supply and demand issues and issues with financial transactions that cross the globe. Varghese then moves onto what she sees as perhaps one of the greatest benefits of blockchain: its ability to create a new level of global trust based on accessible, immutable data. This new type of trust will become increasingly important as we continue to work across geographical boundaries.
Varghese dives into great detail about the many benefits of blockchain, including how it:
- Recruits talent more efficiently and brings more diversity to the workplace
- Allows for speedy connections to skills and talents needed by today’s organizations to succeed and grow sustainably
- Helps with various HR matters such as employee payroll, benefits administration, and insurance
- Lends itself to the gig economy and working with distributed teams
- Can help create, verify, and protect the digital passports and digital resumes that will be so critical in the near future
- Will call for a new type of leadership based on relationships and trust

As Varghese asserts in the closing of the book, “Blockchain, when deployed with integrity and good governance, has the potential to help us operate seamlessly with trust—across our communities, our world and our universe.”

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to AHA-BUCH GmbH, Einbeck, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
