  • The Fuss About Data Driven
    2024/11/05
    According to some research, about half of large organizations are“Data Driven,” meaning they are “driving business innovation with data.” According to other research, that number is about half of that. But wait, isn’t that what data is for in the first place? Not good enough! So in this episode, we call BS on Data Driven. Our guest is Randy Bean, bestselling author of Fail Fast, Learn Faster: Lessons in Data-Driven Leadership in an Age of Disruption, Big Data, and AI, and a regular contributor to Forbes, Harvard Business Review, and MIT Sloan Management Review on Data & AI leadership.

  • The Fuss About Data Quality
    2024/10/08
    For so many of us, Data Quality is like a healthy diet and daily exercise. You want the benefits, but you don’t want to do what it takes to get them. Interrogating the data is the easy part. Sustaining a Data Quality program requires discipline and culture. It’s what we’ve beensaying all along. It’s people. And one of those people is Tom Redman, whom we are excited to welcome to Rock Bottom.

  • The Fuss About Data Ethics
    2024/09/24
    So many times we get our words reversed when naming subject areas. Instead of Data Ethics, for example, we should be talking about ethics as applied to data. This ties our interest to the broader discipline. Our guest, Daragh O Brien, is an expert in the field and gives us a lot of food for thought both about how we use data and how we allow our data to be used.

  • The Fuss About AI
    2024/09/10
    The most common fears about artificial intelligence are from movies, and while there are reasons for concern, Skynet becoming sentient and terminating humanity aren’t among them. A lot of great progress is being made in several fields using artificial intelligence and machine learning. Our guest, Wendy Lawhead, shares her experience as a data science and AI practitioner for several companies across multiple industries. Most importantly, successful and sustainable AI requires well understood data so that time is spent on the analytics, not on the preparation. And well understood data requires culture and discipline. It’s all about people. Chapters 00:00 –...

  • Data is Anthropology
    2024/08/27
    Data is as much about people as it is about technology, if not more. It’s anthropology. We need a transformational approach to data that focuses on culture and discipline. For example, companies are jumping onto AI from shaky data foundations, then have the nerve to be surprised when it doesn’t work out as well as they expected. We need to do something different. To help us take a fresh view and fresh perspective we welcome to Rock Bottom Malcolm Hawker, Chief Data Officer at Profisee.

  • The Fuss About Data
    2024/08/13
    John Ladley and Mark Cooper welcome you to Rock Bottom. We recognize that the last thing the world needs is another podcast, but we aim to make this one different. We are going to take apart the data industry and have fun doing it. It seems that many companies aren’t taking data and analytics very seriously either, so maybe we’ll fit right in. We’re all at rock bottom, but at the end of each episode everyone technical and everyone non-technical will take away some nugget of information that will allow them to take one step forward. The journey starts today...
