Talks on Data, Productivity and the Decisions in Between
Twenty years running data and operations at Virgin, flydubai, Philip Morris and Mondelez, turned into talks that give an audience something they can act on the following Monday.
What Audiences Get
Most data talks leave a room impressed and unchanged. These are built the other way round: every session ends with a number the audience can go and measure, and a decision they can make without buying anything.
The material comes from operating roles, so the examples are real projects with real constraints: a +20% share value increase at Mondelez, a digital transformation reaching 10 million consumers at Philip Morris, and the failures in between that explain why most analytics work never changes a decision.
Formats run from a 20-minute conference keynote to a half-day internal session for a leadership team. Remote works fine for the shorter formats.
