Ep 042 - Jansen Sullivan and Victor Anjos - Data education deserves better
This was an episode where Jansen Sullivan and Victor Anjos of the All Things Data podcast by 1000ml and I talked about data education and some of the gaps that we hope get resolved. A lot of progress is being made but lots more needs to happen.
Jansen, Victor, and myself all believe that traditional analytics education moves too slowly and is often too focused on checking boxes more than creating good data analysts, data scientists, data engineers, data product owners, etc. There is a lot of great efforts that traditional universities are working to adapt but the system lacks the agility.
Beyond the traditional education approach, the analytics space is a space that requires real projects and experience with end-to-end problems to advance people’s skills. More apprenticeship learning is required and love to see more organizations recognize this and support this.

Ep 039 - Brent Dykes - Data Storytelling is More Than Data Visualization
Data storytelling is extremely important to tell memorable and impactful data stories. All too often good data visualization is confused as data storytelling. In this episode Dave Mathias interviews Brent Dykes who recently authored Effective Data Storytelling that brings this point home and much more. It is a must have book and not just if you are a “data person.” In addition to his recent book, Brent is also a Sr. Director, Data Strategy at Domo and Forbes Contributor.
