This week’s newsletter is a little different.

I’ve loved writing Strategies For Effective Data Leadership (almost) each week and today marks the 30th edition! Holy Cow. 🐄

I don’t think I’ve ever done something consistently 30 times!

Anyway, to mark this enormous landmark event, today’s newsletter is not so much a newsletter, but a video presentation. I hope you enjoy it. Details below!

🤖 Data First. AI Second.

AI FOMO is real.

Companies are handing over wads of cash to consultancies and technology companies so they don’t miss out on the AI hype train.

AI buzz is at fever pitch right now and data leaders are having to placate business leaders who are desperate not to get left behind in this latest tech hype cycle.

The impossible task before them?

To discover ways for their business to leverage AI knowing all the while that the poor state of their data means that any AI initiatives could well be a risky endeavour…

To combat this, companies need to go back to basics. Not just back to their business strategy or their data strategy, but all the way back to their data culture. But how does that work?

Luckily, I’ve put together a presentation on the topic and it’s all yours!

I’d love to know your thoughts - enjoy!

Presentation: Data First. AI Second.

AI FOMO is everywhere. Many companies are desperate to start leveraging AI capabilities in their businesses.... But there is only one problem: Their data is a mess and they have no data culture/strategy to speak of! How on earth are they going to effectively leverage AI? My talk explores the sequence of data maturity and how that relates to the AI buzz. From data culture to data strategy to (finally) technology and AI.
