Executive roundtable: Humanizing data in the age of AI

As AI rapidly advances, it’s more crucial than ever to align technical data strategies with a human-centric approach. While focusing on metrics can be tempting, the true value of data strategy lies in understanding the human factors that drive and are influenced by these insights.

 

This executive roundtable will explore how to integrate a human-centric mindset, enabling organizations to leverage data effectively while maintaining ethical integrity and fostering collaboration. Drawing inspiration from the new book 'Humanizing Data Strategy' by Tiankai Feng, Head of Data Strategy & Data Governance Services at Thoughtworks, (Europe), we will address:

 

  • Effective collaboration: Transforming insights into strategic action.
  • Ethical data governance: Balancing innovation with responsibility.
  • AI integration: Seamlessly incorporating AI into data frameworks.
  • Scalable infrastructure: Building adaptive, future-proof systems.
  • Real-world case studies: Learning from successful implementations.
