Here’s what your attendees will learn:

Unlock Growth Through Daily Innovative Decisions

Innovation doesn’t need a pitch deck. Organizations have been talking about the need to be innovative since the end of WWII, where technological innovation was seen as the catalyst for economic growth.

Every executive has been told to be “more innovative” or to foster an “innovative environment.” You understand why, but do you know if your organization is being truly innovative?

The best place to look for innovation is in the quality of decisions being made. Everything an organization does can be broken down into decisions, which are the building blocks of innovation, like Legos.

Here’s what your attendees will learn:

  1. How to foster new avenues for ideas while ensuring those ideas reach decision-makers
  2. How tracking Decision Speed can surface bottlenecks in decision-making
  3. How to ignore HPOs (Highest Paid Opinion) and create an environment where the best ideas win
  4. Why innovation isn’t about major changes but small tweaks

What Other Clients Are Saying

A preview of the results and audience reactions you can expect when we work together.

I am not a data scientist. I'm a marketing professional. I need to know what data is relevant to my business and to the businesses of my clients. That's what they expect. I tend to be overwhelmed by data, but Ruben's approach, distilling down what's important, finding what's relevant and following it accordingly is beautiful. We need people like Ruben to help us understand the data that's most relevant to our businesses. I highly recommend his book, The Daily Mirage. Pick that up. It will be your go-to reference on a daily basis.

Ruben Ugarte was instrumental to the success of the 2021 Data Summit Conference, produced by Information Today, Inc. 's DBTA unit. He not only gave an excellent talk on building a data-driven culture that drives results, which was full of useful and practical information about technology, skills, and expectations that contribute to the success of companies, but he also served as moderator for the entire day of the Modern Data Architecture track, keeping speakers on track and asking them interesting and perceptive questions in the Q&A portion of the sessions. We deeply appreciate Ruben’s contributions to the conference and applaud his expertise around making data actionable.
