Episode Overview:

The ability of an organization to be more resilient to change, to be more flexible and adaptable, and to use data for decision making – are key traits of high-functioning companies. In this episode of the CDO Matters Podcast, Malcolm talks with Jason Foster, the CEO of Cynosure, about how CDO’s can become more ready for AI, or any other major disruption to their business.

While becoming ‘AI ready’ is extremely important, Jason makes a compelling case that data leaders need to take a more holistic approach to becoming more change resilient – which would also include a focus on value, design thinking, and being more commercially focused – among many other important traits to CDO success outlined in this broad-reaching discussion.
