Transitioning to Data-first Culture: Stories from the Battlefield
"Data is the new oil. AI is the new electricity." That quote from Andrew Ng has certainly helped set up a culture of change in the technology world.
Many people feel that if they’re not extracting every ounce of information from their data, opportunities can be lost. While we certainly believe that data is important, some of the hyperbole around data and data science has gotten a little out of hand.
In this talk we will recall real stories about using data in current and prior organizations. In some cases, data science was a natural fit and in others it was more difficult to implement.
Our goal is to give the audience a flavor of what organizations actually have to go through to become a data first culture. The panel will discuss these topics:
Overview of data platforms and tools, and how to distinguish between them:
• Big players—AWS, Google, Oracle, Azure
• Tools such as Tableau, SAS, Oracle analytics, Microsoft Power PI
Transformation/ Activation of data for healthcare – from dashboards to actions:
• Data foundation, aggregation
• Getting to KPIs and dashboards to actions
How to implement platforms, tools, dashboards – from a project standpoint
• High level implementation details, changing skills of organization
• Change management and key elements of success/ adoption
• Beyond scaling of organization.
After short presentations, we will conduct directed Q&A and invite questions/interactions from the audience.
