Social distancing is new in society.
A data scientist told me:
💬 “I avoid the guy from sales guy. He has no idea what he’s talking about.”
Later, the sales guy said:
💬 “I dodge meetings with data people, because they will dive right into the details.”
Of course, everyone has different preferences.
The thing is, both sides need each other.
🔸 People in business roles need some level of data literacy.
🔹 People in data have to understand the business needs.
Conversation between the two groups is key.
Without it, we will never be able to unlock the true value of data. Â
Whenever the Coronavirus comes to a halt,
We can stop social distancing in the streets.
Perhaps that is a good time to make another step –
So that we can stop social distancing between business and data too.
