Citigroup's Chris Powers on Data Literacy
The Data Chief - A podcast by ThoughtSpot - Mercoledì
Today's guest is Chris Powers, Senior Vice President and Global Product Manager of Business Data Analytics & Digital Innovations at Citigroup. Chris and Cindi discuss data literacy as a thought process, what common data sense is and how it can be taught to people without shaming them, and why "the five whys" are an invaluable technique for solving almost any problem. They also examine the real -- and counterintuitive -- purpose of self-service analytics. Plus, Cindi and Chris explain why data's role as the new oil is only as good as knowing what engine can use it.
