About the event
One of the common themes we’ve seen in recent years is that Data teams, in particular, have become overinflated and in some cases lacked efficiency. We're encouraging an informal discussion around the importance of talent density and how hiring problem solvers rather than specific technical skills is critical to success. The group will dive into how they identify these problem solvers and what attributes they look for within them, as well as having a wider conversation about how to get the most out of these teams to ensure a leaner yet more efficient approach to Data.
To tackle this, we are hosting an in-person intimate roundtable, where Data leaders from the likes of Raft.ai, Rightmove, Silver Lake, Beauty Pie, Auction Technology Group, Expana, Deliveroo and Planet, meet up and discuss their challenges, and experiences surrounding talent density, leadership balance and hiring problem-solvers.
The target audience for this event was Data Leaders and specifically Data decision makers, from different sized organisations to encourage diverse career backgrounds and opinions.
Some of the more focused thoughts highlighted have been:
💡Talent Density: Strategies for building high-impact teams by ensuring quality and alignment across all team members.
💡Hiring for Problem-Solving: Shifting beyond technical skills and industry backgrounds to identify and develop problem-solvers within data teams.
💡Leadership Balance: Exploring how leaders can meet commercial demands while staying connected to their technical teams.
