Data Leadership Ep. 1 | New Visions for New Technologies

Episode notes

The complete digitization of an organization is inevitable in today’s rapidly evolving technological world. As seemingly daily technological advances are made, there can be resistance to the willingness to adopt these valuable tools into an organization. Sometimes slow change is inherent and is deeply rooted in the mentality of “what’s worked” versus “what’s possible.” Leaders at the C-suite level have a tremendous task: Creating a vision for the future while aligning these emerging tools with company culture and values. Dr. Abel Sanchez, Executive Director of the Geospatial Data Center at MIT, and Prof. John R. Williams, Director of the Geospatial Data Center at MIT, open this two-part series on data leadership as it pertains to the slow change of adapting new technologies to organizations due to decision making by C-suite executives. Explore the innovation and genius of generative AI tools like GitHub and ChatGPT 3. Also, examine why certain technologies, such as cloud technology, have yet to receive better recognition or marketing.
