Unlock the Power of Data and AI
How will you retrieve value from your data and how can you use AI to optimize your processes and workflows? I distinguish five building blocks:
Strategy
Defines where you want to move and what you need to do to get there
Platform
A Data-collection and transformation platform that facilitates the products and processes that need to run on the platform
Products
Where the data is used and supporting your company’s revenue. Properly managed, fit for purpose and based on user-requests.
People (Change Management)
To make sure the Data and AI is used. People have to be taken along on the benefits of Data and AI. Just providing a tool is not going to do the trick.
Governance
Data collection, storage and use governed by the right tools. So you are not at risk in using the data in the wrong way
From insight to action
The Data Strategist.ai supports companies with a clear and executionable Data- en AI-strategy that support growth and innovation in the new Data and AI-driven reality
