This talk is for leaders who want new techniques to improve their success rates. In the last 15 months I've built a private data science peer mentorship group where we discuss rebellious ideas that improve our ability to make meaningful change in organisations of all sizes.
As a leader you've no doubt had trouble defining new projects (perhaps you've been asked - "add ChatGPT!"), getting buy-in, building support, defining defensible metrics and milestones, hiring, developing your team, dealing with conflict, avoiding overload and ultimately delivering valuable projects that are adopted by the business. I'll share advice across all of these areas based on 25 years of personal experience and the topics we've discussed in my leadership community.
You'll walk away with new ideas, perspectives and references that ought to change how to work with your team and organisation.
