Sebastian Wernicke, Author of Data InspiredAs organizations accelerate their adoption of AI the data that provides the power behind AI is becoming increasingly important.

To learn more about this data challenge and understand how organizations can move beyond being "data driven", host Robert Holland spoke with Sebastian Wernicke about his upcoming book Data Inspired. Wernicke is a partner at Oxera Consulting and has been guiding organizations through data transformations for two decades. In addition to his work in data science and artificial intelligence for Oxera, Wernicke has given three TED talks on data and decision-making. This background makes him perfectly suited to help organizations understand that data should help uncover better ways to create value and foster innovation.
