For decades organizations have invested millions of dollars in gathering data but have little to show for it because they don’t know how to make use of it. Data is a powerful resource but will be wasted if the organization does not have people across departments who can turn data into insight. A Citizen Data Scientist Program is a proven strategy to bridge the talent gap by training existing team members and spreading knowledge across the organization. Matthew shares interesting and practical methods for how to implement a citizen program in your organization.

Is your organization bogged down with mundane tasks that must be done, but don’t create compelling value for customers?

•  Amplify current business-side efforts
•  Relieve overloaded IT backlogs
•  Simplify and speed up the implementation of automation projects

Digital Superpowers are abilities that allow business users to achieve goals that were once impossible, or at least very difficult, to accomplish without the help of traditional IT resources. These abilities can be used for a variety of purposes:

• Adapting to shifting market conditions
• Increasing personal and team productivity
• Mastering new information
• Sharing ideas and knowledge
• Outmaneuvering competition
