Shownotes

This is Episode 7 of the ThinkData Podcast and we had a great chat with Michelle Ballen who heads up Data & Analytics at Future who are a fast-growing Personal training platform in the US.

We discussed -

  • What steps companies should take when establishing a culture and environment of self-service analytics and who is ultimately responsible for the internal adoption of those tools?
  • Why Data governance should be embraced and not feared.
  • What are the benefits of organizations adopting and fostering an experimentation-based culture regarding product development and analytics?
  • What should leaders do in order to create a united workforce and an environment of continual learning?
  • What steps did Michelle take to navigate her career which saw her becoming a "Head of Data" within the modern data stack for some of the most exciting tech firms in the US today?

This was a cracking episode for anyone interested in how to create a culture of self-service analytics and fantastic work culture, whilst also appreciating that the success of so many projects within Data start and end with a robust and strict Data governance process!
