I first met Kate in 2019 and interviewed her for my data leaders series way back when, which is on YouTube. Zip to 2022 and Kate has launched her own brand DATAcated. She's got a great philosophy to life, is an avid reader, watches very little TV and gets up at 5am to get all of the things that she wants to do before the rest of the family awake. I've watched Kate from a distance since 2019, going from corporate employee to data influencer and her relentless drive to achieve all she can is an absolute inspiration to me and to others. She is extremely personable and I believe that comes through in the interview. We had a lot of laughs and of course behind every data leader, there is a person and here is Kate unplugged!

Today, many organizations are pushing for increasing and enhancing data literacy across their business — oftentimes running one-off trainings with the hopes of magically creating a more “literate” workforce. But, it's just not working. We need a different approach. What if instead we focused on making technology more “business savvy” so that non-data people didn't have to learn every data concept? What if instead of expecting non-data people to speak the language of data, we expected data scientists and analysts to speak the language of the business? In this episode, we sat down with the one & only Kate Strachnyi, Founder and Community Manager of DATAcated, to discuss this vision for the future of data & analytics and how she educates today's data professionals through community. In this episode we also dive deeper into: How & why Kate started DATAcated The vision for her new centralized community: The DATAcated Circle Her advice for others looking to build a brand and community on LinkedIn A different approach to data literacy Why technology needs to be built for the business user The value of data analysts and scientists who work through a business lens How more data can do more harm than good How to tell data stories that people care about Kate's vision for the future of data & analytics The importance of maintaining trust in data The role big organizations will play in educating & enabling the data community Check out these resources that were mentioned in the show: Connect with Kate on Linkedin Learn more about DATAcated Apply to join the DATAcated Circle If you want to hear more, subscribe to Leading with Data onApple Podcasts,Spotify, orhere.
