A "Sensemaker" refers to someone who interprets and makes sense of complex information, events, or situations. In both personal and professional contexts, a sensemaker analyzes data, identifies patterns, and provides clarity in uncertain or chaotic circumstances. This role is crucial in decision-making processes, as it helps to distill complex issues into actionable insights. Sensemakers are often skilled at navigating ambiguity, offering perspectives that guide others toward understanding and resolution. https://photocalltv.es/photocall-tv-deportes/
