Todd Takes
- I loved Dan’s point on how being indestructible means also being adaptable and open to changing things up. That goes to the core of what we talk about with innovation on this show.
- Relating the indestructible mentality to how we approach data, it is more flexible, relatable and useful than we realize IF we have good governance and a rock solid “north star”. It is important to have your “north star” on how to use and leverage data.
- Finally, Dan mentioned that technology adoption and digital transformation starts with a good culture. The transformation necessarily to harness the power of data is more mindset than anything. It requires us to shift our perspective and be willing to sometimes “unlearn” more than “learn”.
