In my previous role as a CTO I always thought about investing in tools like making a hiring decision. I need to have a clear job to be done for the tool that is purchased and a plan of execution. Every dollar spent in hiring (a person or tool) needs to be put to work making the company better - or it is wasted spend. 🎙️ Matthew Kelliher-Gibson, MBA,Eric Dodds and I got to explore this very topic as it relates to data tools on the latest episode of The Data Stack Show. One of the highlights for me was when Matthew Kelliher-Gibson, MBA said: "Busyness is not business value. It's easy to think you're doing well because you're busy and meeting stakeholder demands. But that doesn't necessarily mean we're delivering what the business truly needs. We need to dig deeper and understand the real objectives." Its easy to get too caught up in the cycle of 'busy' without stopping to assess the real impact. How do we make sure that our tools are all actually pushing the business forward? 👇 I’d love to hear from you. How do you ensure your tool investments are truly adding value? #DataTooling #DataEngineering #DataScience ---------------------------- Follow The Data Stack Show on linkedin to stay up to date on the latest episodes!
