Our Guest: Phil Husbands is an expert in data management and helping organizations transition from data chaos to data comfort. He recognizes that many organizations struggle with data chaos, where data efforts are abundant but not successful in driving value. Phil sees data chaos as a situation where data feels like hard work and creates a mess that needs to be constantly cleaned up.

However, Phil understands that achieving data excellence requires a roadmap and cannot happen overnight. His approach focuses on taking the first steps to escape data chaos and create breathing space for the organization. By freeing up resources from unproductive data efforts, organizations can start focusing on more data-driven activities.
