Value Driven Data Science: Boost your impact. Earn what you’re worth. Rewrite your career algorithm.
When data science first became the must-have skill of the 21st century, organisations were fighting to recruit the best and brightest data science talent. But the glory of having a data scientist on staff was often short-lived, as many organisations soon found they didn’t know what to do with them.
Business leaders had been sold the dream of being able to turn their data into business gold but were unable to maximise the value of the data science expertise they had brought in because they couldn’t communicate effectively with their new data science teams.
In this episode, Dr Howard Friedman joins Dr Genevieve Hayes to discuss how adopting a customer mindset can help business leaders capitalise on the hidden value of data.
