The global advertising market is roughly US$1.1 trillion, with digital channels accounting for most of that activity. Marketing measurement therefore increasingly depends on complex data environments: high-dimensional covariates, machine-learning systems, continuous treatments, platform reporting constraints, and organisational pressure to turn evidence into decisions. These settings create opportunities for richer causal analysis, but they also raise difficult questions about validity, uncertainty, diagnostics, reproducibility, and whether an estimated effect is useful for the decision at hand.

Volume 2 of Causal Inference in Marketing: A Practical Toolkit for Panel Data carries the framework of Volume 1 into the advanced and operational half of the book. It extends the core panel toolkit into machine learning, high-dimensional adjustment, continuous and nonlinear treatment settings, threats to validity, inference, diagnostics, applied marketing workflows, data and measurement systems, reproducibility, and open problems. The emphasis throughout is on applying causal principles under the constraints of real marketing data and real organisational settings.

Key Features:

• Develops machine-learning and high-dimensional methods for panel data, including orthogonalisation, cross-fitting under panel dependence, heterogeneous treatment effects, policy learning, regularisation, and double selection.
• Provides a diagnostics and inference playbook covering pre-trends, placebos, sensitivity analysis, bootstrap and randomisation inference, multiplicity, weak instruments, and uncertainty communication.
• Connects advanced causal methods to marketing applications, including media mix models, geo-experiments, platform data, pricing, promotions, customer lifetime value, retention, measurement systems, and reproducible evidence production.

Written for data scientists, marketing analysts, econometricians, and applied researchers, this volume is intended for readers who are comfortable with regression and applied statistics and who want to extend causal design into robust implementation, diagnosis, and reporting. Volume 1 develops the foundations, including potential outcomes, design-based thinking, difference-in-differences, event studies, synthetic control, factor and matrix methods, dynamics, heterogeneity, interference, and spillovers.

Charles Shaw is a Data Science Director at WPP Media, where he leads econometric measurement and optimisation for global brands.

The global advertising market is roughly US$1.1 trillion, before accounting for the wider investments firms make in pricing, promotions, loyalty, and customer acquisition. Yet the evidence used to measure these investments is often fragile. Traditional marketing mix models offer operational convenience, while modern econometric methods promise stronger causal identification. In practice, marketing teams must work with short panels, staggered rollouts, overlapping campaigns, platform interference, and competitive responses that make simple before-and-after comparisons unreliable.

Volume 1 of Causal Inference in Marketing: A Practical Toolkit for Panel Data develops the foundations and core panel designs needed to turn those messy data structures into credible causal evidence. Grounded in potential-outcomes reasoning and design-based thinking, it translates causal inference into the language of marketing measurement: incrementality, attribution, budget allocation, and decision-relevant reporting. The emphasis throughout is on clear estimands, credible identification, practical diagnostics, and recognising when the available data cannot support the causal claim being made.

Key Features:

• Provides a practitioner-first framework for causal panel design in marketing, including estimands, assignment mechanisms, support, diagnostics, and reporting standards.
• Covers the core modern panel toolkit, including difference-in-differences, staggered adoption designs, event studies, synthetic control, augmented synthetic control, synthetic difference-in-differences, interactive fixed effects, and matrix completion.
• Includes dedicated treatment of dynamic effects, heterogeneity, interference, and spillovers in advertising, pricing, loyalty, platforms, and marketing effectiveness settings.

Written for data scientists, marketing analysts, econometricians, and applied researchers, this volume is intended for readers who are comfortable with regression and applied statistics and want a rigorous, practical route from marketing panel data to causal evidence. Volume 2 extends the toolkit into machine learning, high-dimensional adjustment, continuous treatments, inference, diagnostics, applications, data systems, reproducibility, and future practice.

The US Army faces an extraordinary people management challenge: managing more than one million service members worldwide who rotate through new roles every two to three years. For decades, the Army relied on a one-size-fits-all, Industrial Age personnel system that treated individuals as interchangeable parts. While effective in a previous era, this approach is increasingly misaligned with a strategic environment that demands adaptability, innovation, and speed. Recognizing that its legacy system was no longer sufficient, Army leaders undertook a rapid and far-reaching transformation to modernize how talent is identified, developed, and employed.

The Talent Imperative tells the inside story of this transformation. Written by leaders directly involved in designing and implementing these reforms, the book blends scholarly rigor with practical insight to explain the Army's approach to talent management as a strategic source of competitive advantage. It examines how the Army's "Triad of Talent"-a talent attribute framework, talent assessments, and talent markets-enhances the Army's ability to place the right person in the right position at the right time, over time, while giving service members clearer ownership of career opportunities the Army values.

While grounded in the military context, the book speaks to a broad audience of scholars, practitioners, and students of human resource management, public administration, and organizational change. In an era defined by competition for talent, the Army's experience offers transferable lessons for large organizations seeking to adapt their people systems in complex, high-stakes environments.
