DECODING AQ - Adaptability For The Future Of Work With Ross Thornley
Decoding AQ with Ross Thornley Feat. Andy Kriebel - Unlocking the power of data
Welcome back to Decoding AQ. Today, I'm joined by Andy Kriebel, a Mathematician, trainer and an incredibly distinguished figure in the realm of data visualization and a truly influential leader in the world of data analytics.
Andy's journey, spanning over two decades, has seen him evolve into a master trainer and a revered member of the Tableau Visionary Hall of Fame. He's not just an expert; he's a mentor who has shaped the careers of countless data professionals through his innovative training courses and community leadership initiatives. He has led and implemented data visualization programs at Facebook and Coca-Cola, and co-authored the book "Makeover Monday" with Eva Murray.
What drew me to Andy was his passion about helping individuals and organizations unlock the power of data to drive their business decisions. And I wanted to find out more, about how we can really leverage data to manifest the change in the world I and many of our community at AQai would love to see.
When he's not transforming the data landscape, Andy embraces the vigor of the outdoors, be it hiking, running marathons, or conquering triathlons. His dynamic life is a testament to adaptability in action.
Join us as we delve into the multifaceted world of Andy Kriebel, where data meets determination, innovation, and adaptability.
