As the son of a Holocaust survivor, Oded is the first in his family to attend college. After graduation, he spent some time working in a chicken house but quickly decided that wasn't for him. After a quick stop at a consulting firm, he returned to college to climb the academic research ladder and pursue a career in education. Currently, he splits his time between teaching as an affiliate of the Columbia University Data Science Institute and consulting as an Amazon Scholar. He has published dozens of papers in the world's leading marketing and management science journals, and his award-winning research is widely read and highly cited.In this episode, Alan and Oded discuss "Decisions Over Decimals," Oded's latest co-authored book with Christopher Frank, Vice President of the Global Advertising and Brand Management team at American Express, and Paul Magnone, Head of Global Strategic Alliances at Google, who are also professors at Columbia. Having worked on the front lines and taught future executives, they identified two data myths that served as the inspiration for this book. Oded presents these myths and explores the three core pillars of quantitative intuition covered in the book, highlighting how marketers can improve decision-making by understanding these concepts.Oded advises against the inclination to rush to find a solution and instead encourages spending more time understanding the problem. According to Oded, a well-thought-out problem is already half-solved. This interview and the book emphasize the significance of asking insightful questions and properly defining the problem. This approach is evident in the emergence of Prompt Engineers for tools like ChatGPT, where precise questioning leverages quantitative intuition to achieve desired outcomes.The conversation also touches upon unstructured data and its implications for marketers in terms of analysis, decision-making, customer listening, and demonstrating that marketing is not just a cost but can also drive revenue.In this episode, you'll learn:"Decisions Over Decimals": Why this book and why now?What we should be thinking about in terms of good data-based decision-makingHow quantitative intuition is relevant to Prompt Engineers using tools like ChatGPTKey Highlights: [01:50] The son of a Holocaust survivor[03:45] From the chicken house to the university classroom[06:30] Why this book and why now?[09:25] Three pillars of quantitative intuition[16:30] "It's not that I'm so smart; it's just that I stay with problems longer."[18:00] Analyst in Wonderland[21:00] Prompt Engernerrs [23:15] What is so special about ChatGPT?[25:45] The best is yet to come with AI.[28:00] How should we think about unstructured data?[30:50] Connecting marketing with unstructured data[35:20] Gen Z pushing for "doing well by doing good"[38:00] What excites Oded in the marketing space now?[39:55] Travel is the best teacher.[40:50] Enjoy the journey.[41:30] Generative AI and creating a win-win[42:10] Brands to watch[44:30] Gen Z and AI are driving the future Thank you to our sponsor:PartnerHero: to waive set-up fees, go to https://www.partnerhero.com/marketingtoday and mention “Marketing Today” during onboarding!

People’s work styles vary. Now, more than ever, IT leaders are beginning to recognize that if they hope to attain strong adoption of communications technology in the enterprise, they need to understand and consider user behavior, device preference and work style.

This work identified distinct working styles or “personas.” In this episode host, Delanda Coleman and the VP of Global Strategic Alliances from Plantronics, Boris Seibert will cover the topics that have stemmed from that research: the story that follows why People Matter, Devices Matter and Insights Matter when connecting the dots on adoption of a Microsoft Teams or Skype for Business deployment.
