What if the reason your data strategy is failing has nothing to do with technology—and everything to do with storytelling? In this episode of Data Unchained, host Molly Presley sits down with Scott Taylor, “The Data Whisperer,” to unpack why data leaders keep missing the mark when trying to engage the business. With decades of experience helping global enterprises understand the value of foundational data, Scott makes a powerful case for why “data quality” doesn’t sell, why AI without clean inputs is doomed, and why storytelling—not tooling—is the missing link between data teams and the C-suite. If you’ve ever struggled to get executive buy-in or make your data projects stick, this conversation will change the way you frame your value.Scott Taylor:https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottmztaylor/Cyberpunk by jiglr | https://soundcloud.com/jiglrmusicMusic promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comCreative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Licensehttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en_US Hosted on Acast.
