Hear Quantium CEO Adam Driussi talk AI, ethics and social responsibility in part 2 of the latest Catalyst Conversations podcast.
There are over 120 zettabytes of data in the world, but less than 1% is ever analysed. That’s an extraordinary volume of unrealised value and potential. In part 2 of the discussion, Adam explains the potential pitfalls around HOW we discuss (and use) data, as well as the ethics and common misconceptions around AI and predictive analysis.

In the first episode of this two part conversation, Adam talks about the history of Quantium as a pioneer in the data space. Adam has always understood the far reaching power of data in decision making - to enrich decisions rather than dictate them. He talks about the importance of a clear company Purpose and the journey his organisation went through to unlock the full power of that purpose. Finally he talks about the importance of alignment - between data and creativity, values and behaviours, Purpose and partnerships, and more.

Today's guest is the effervescent Kristi Woolrych, the kind of leader who leaves an imprint on everyone she meets. You'll find yourself saying "I want to work for her" as you hear how she graciously steers such a successful team. Ben and Kristi chat about her transition from CMO in finance, to quick service restaurants, how she keeps her team reaching for more and the inherent creativity in unleashing your free spirit.
As Chief Marketing Officer at KFC South Pacific, Kristi was previously responsible for driving sales growth through food innovation and retail communications whilst also driving long term brand equity and to lead the marketing team in their goals. After we finished recording she took on a new challenge, stepping up into the General Manager role she's now excelling in.
