#7 questions to Julia about her and the DATA festival…
3
# With which three words would you describe the DATA festival?
inspiring, network and knowledge booster
# Why did you want to be a part of the DATA festival committee?
I am not a data expert. This is my „weakness“, but also my strength: By being part of the committee, I want to enable data leaders to speak business and make them succeed in their organisations.
# How did you join the DATA festival committee?
After my speech at the data festival in March 2019, where I presented Scout24’s AI readiness journey, Alex Thamm asked me if I wanted to contribute to the DATA festival by being part of the committee. Since then I feel honoured being part of this group of brilliant minds.
# How would you like to have an impact on the DATA community?
I strongly believe that great data ideas often need to go hand-in-hand with cultural change and change management. I want to build this bridge and inspire people to connect these elements.
# What is your passion besides DATA?
Positive psychology and neuroscience. And making change happen for leaders and experts.
# What is your festival must have?
FUN!
# If I would not be working with DATA, I…
would still be working with bright minds (as I actually do, too): Help them build their success stories as coach.
