Data Democratization and the “Intelligence Era” with Trevor Schulze, CIO of Alteryx

Striking the balance between data access and security has always been a nuanced challenge for tech leaders, long before the rise of generative AI. But now, how does AI play into the need for data literacy and data democratization? In this episode, Yadin sits down with Trevor Schulze, the CIO of Alteryx, to discuss the importance of data democratization amidst the “intelligence era”. They discuss creating data-literate teams, empowering your employees with data and the value of speed to insight. --------- Key Quotes: “People talk about a data-driven culture and what does that mean? It means that you need to encourage and reward people to ask and seek questions through data.” “We always paid attention to data, right? That's our job. But really we have to refresh and rethink and reimagine what we have to do in order to enable these intelligence systems to really take advantage of advanced capabilities.” “You need a literate group of people in your company who are going to have the ability to take advantage of these new AI enabled systems in this era of intelligence.” Time stamps: (00:00) Upskilling IT teams with data literacy (01:50) How Trevor is enabling teams amidst AI (03:56) What really is data literacy?
