    Episode 88: Building a Data Science Career After Unexpected Job Loss

    There was once a time, when data science was still in its infancy, when demonstrating any attempt to learn Python or machine learning was enough to secure a job interview. The demand for data scientists massively outweighed supply.  Ten years later, however, the job market has dramatically shifted - and many data scientists who unexpectedly find themselves out of work face a truly overwhelming experience. In this episode, Sarah Burnett joins Dr. Genevieve Hayes to share how she transformed redundancy from a senior banking role into the launch of her own successful data consultancy, proving that unexpected job loss doesn't have to mean career disaster. In this episode, we explore: Why redundancy is a numbers game, not personal failure [03:54]The power of taking time to process after job loss, instead of rushing back [08:47]How to pivot when your first business idea doesn't work [16:58]Why building side projects and community involvement create career insurance [20:52]Guest Bio Sarah Burnett is the co-founder of Dub Dub Data, a consultancy that offers human-centric AI and Tableau solutions. She transitioned into independent consulting after navigating redundancy from a senior role at a major bank. She is also the co-host of the podcast unDubbed.

    Episode 87: [Value Boost] How Your Weirdness Could Be Your Data Science Superpower

    When most data scientists think about their competitive edge, they focus solely on what goes on their resume - education, work experience, and technical skills. But what if the things that truly make you irreplaceable go far deeper than your LinkedIn profile?  Your family background, cultural influences, communication quirks, and even the hobbies that make you nerd out all contribute to what makes you uniquely valuable. In this Value Boost episode, Danny Ruspandini joins Dr. Genevieve Hayes to explore the concept of your "untouchable advantage" - the unique combination of experiences and qualities that make you impossible to replace as a data scientist. You'll discover: Why your untouchable advantage extends far beyond your technical qualifications [02:09]How family influences and personal quirks become professional superpowers [04:14]Why introverts have unique advantages they often don't recognize [10:36]The simple way to uncover your own untouchable advantage starting tomorrow [14:08]Guest Bio Danny Ruspandini is a brand strategist, business coach and director of Impact Labs Australia.

    Episode 86: Why Every Data Scientist Is Already Running a Business

    Every data scientist is running their own business - it's just that most of those businesses are solo operations with one client: their employer. Unfortunately, most data scientists don't realise this and too many fall into the trap of believing their employer will magically take care of their career development, putting them on the right projects and ensuring they get proper training. The reality is that while bosses usually mean well, they have their own careers to worry about. In this episode, Danny Ruspandini joins Dr. Genevieve Hayes to explore how applying a solo business mindset to your data science career can help you take control of your professional destiny, increase your value within organisations, and create opportunities that others miss. You'll learn: How to become the go-to person for specific problems within your organisation [07:11]The "secondary sale" technique that gets your projects approved even when you're not in the room [14:49]Why focusing on one shiny object at a time accelerates your career faster than juggling multiple priorities [19:06]How to find your signature service that makes you indispensable to your employer [23:00]Guest Bio Danny Ruspandini is a brand strategist, business coach and director of Impact Labs Australia.

    Episode 85: [Value Boost] The Office Politics Survival Guide for Data Science Experiments

    Here's something that data science courses don't prepare you for: even your most brilliant analysis can fail if you can't navigate the human side of your organisation. And office politics becomes especially tricky when you're running experiments. You're essentially asking people to place bets on their ideas - and then potentially delivering the news that their bet didn't "win". In this Value Boost episode, Miguel Curiel joins Dr. Genevieve Hayes to share practical strategies for handling the political challenges that come with experimentation and data science work, so you can drive real change without creating enemies. You'll learn: Why running experiments is politically riskier than regular analysis [01:50]The mindset shift that turns experiment "failures" into wins [03:56]How to overcome the "it worked for Netflix" objection [05:07]The simple strategy for reducing political friction around data work [08:24]Guest Bio Miguel Curiel is the Product Analytics Manager at Bloomberg, where he works at the intersection of technology, data and human behaviour.

    Episode 84: The 7-Step Checklist for Creating Business Impact Through Product Analytics

    When working with data, it can be easy to fall into the trap of believing that your dataset represents nothing more than numbers on a page. However, behind every data point is a human story - people clicking through websites, abandoning shopping carts, or binge-watching Netflix shows.  And in our app-driven world, understanding these human behaviours has become absolutely critical - for businesses to flourish and for data scientists to have a meaningful impact in the work they do. This is where product analytics comes in. In this episode, Miguel Curiel joins Dr. Genevieve Hayes to share his practical checklist for maximising business impact through product analytics, drawing from his own experiences analysing how people actually interact with digital products and his upcoming book on the topic. This episode explores: What product analytics actually involves, beyond just measuring clicks and conversions [03:11]Why behavioural science models are crucial for understanding user motivations [07:25]Miguel's seven-step checklist for building impactful product analytics capabilities [15:49]The most valuable skill for data scientists in product analytics [22:27]Guest Bio Miguel Curiel is the Product Analytics Manager at Bloomberg, where he works at the intersection of technology, data and human behaviour.

    Episode 83: [Value Boost] How to Gamify Data Science Requirements Gathering for Better Results

    Stakeholder requirement gathering is often one of the most dreaded parts of data science projects - dry, tedious sessions where conflicting voices talk past each other and senior executives dominate the conversation. Yet without proper requirements, data science projects are doomed to fail due to solving the wrong problems or missing critical business needs. In this Value Boost episode, David Cohen joins Dr. Genevieve Hayes to reveal how gamification can transform stakeholder meetings from painful obligation into collaborative problem-solving sessions that actually produce useful requirements. You'll learn: Why gamification works as a "Trojan horse" for productive business conversations [03:26]How to ensure every voice is heard, not just the loudest or most senior person in the room [06:34]The simple technique that prevents senior executives from dominating and skewing requirements [06:59]The easiest way to add interactive elements to your next stakeholder meeting without complex games [08:20]Guest Bio David Cohen is a data and AI strategy consultant, with a background in supporting the F500 clients of both Big 4 and boutique consulting firms.

    Episode 82: Why You Should Start Your Data Projects with Pictures Not Data

    Most data scientists follow the same predictable process: gather requirements, collect data, build models, and only at the very end create visualisations to communicate results. This traditional approach seems logical, but what if it's actually working against us?  In this episode, David Cohen joins Dr. Genevieve Hayes to reveal how flipping the script on data visualisation - moving it to the beginning of projects rather than the end - can dramatically improve stakeholder buy-in and project success rates. This episode reveals: Why the traditional bottom-up data communication approach often misses the mark [02:36]How moving visual storytelling to the start of a project can transform stakeholder engagement [06:40]The gamified workshop framework that turns requirement gathering into collaborative problem-solving [08:50]The counterintuitive first step that immediately improves data project outcomes [20:28]Guest Bio David Cohen is a data and AI strategy consultant, with a background in supporting the F500 clients of both Big 4 and boutique consulting firms.

    Episode 81: [Value Boost] How to Frame Data Problems Like a Decision Scientist

    Data science training programs often jump straight into technical methods without teaching one of the most critical skills for project success - problem framing. Without proper framing, data science projects are doomed to fail, right from the start, as data scientists find themselves solving the wrong problems or building models that don't address real business decisions. In this Value Boost episode, Professor Jeff Camm joins Dr. Genevieve Hayes to reveal the specific problem framing framework that decision scientists use to ensure they're solving the right problems from the start, dramatically improving their success rates compared to traditional data science approaches. You'll discover: The medical doctor approach to diagnosing business problems by distinguishing symptoms from root causes [02:09]The critical question that reveals what decisions actually need to be made [04:53]How to turn model "failures" into valuable strategic insights for management [06:24]Why thinking beyond the data prevents you from building technically perfect but business-useless solutions [10:04]Guest Bio Prof Jeff Camm is a decision scientist and the Inmar Presidential Chair in Analytics at the Wake Forest University School of Business. His research has been featured in top-ranking academic journals and he is the co-author of ten books on business statistics, management science, data visualisation and business analytics.
