Data Jujitsu - Turning Data Into Product

Given the importance of data to critical decision making, the demand
for Data Scientists is at an all time high. Yet, what does it really
mean to be a Data Scientist and to build a team of Data Scientists?
It's a new world with startups to well established organizations
struggling daily to recruit and structure their teams to best leverage
those that can extract valuable insights from data. At the same time,
it's well known that the ability to leverage data has reached a new
level of critical importance in organizations to improve decision
making. Now, with commodity technologies, it is possible to cheaply
create data products that can have a massive impact on the business
(e.g., People You May Know or Who's Viewed My Profile on LinkedIn).
In this talk I'll walk though the product philosophy I've found works
best to rapidly test and deploy data products. I'll also address the
critical gotchas in developing highly engaging user facing data
products.
