Topic: Data Alone is Not Enough

Data initiatives are too focused on democratizing access to information and not focused enough on driving business impact. No amount of information will alone drive change in an org. For meaningful change, companies need their information tied to the tooling that allows them to drive change. In this talk, Turbine CEO Emilie Schario will talk through her experience in data organizations at Netlify, GitLab, and Smile Direct Club and three strategies on how teams can drive more impact.
