Leveraging Data to Innovate in Your Industry—with Alexander Klebanov - EP037
Leaders innovate to solve problems in an organization.
But innovation requires imagination. And Alexander Klebanov contends that the best way to push the boundaries of imagination is to first push the boundaries of knowledge. To let go of control and let the data drive you.
Alexander is a data scientist and AI expert with experience in the transportation, utilities and oil and gas industries. We were colleagues at Chesapeake Energy for many years before Alexander moved on to his current role as Customer Engineer in Analytics at Google.
On this episode of Career Confessions, Alexander joins me to explain how data science helps teams and organizations become the best version of themselves.
We explore how data analytics can spark innovation in any industry, and Alexander offers advice on learning data science skills by anchoring into a discipline you already know.
