Traditionally, organizations are prone to falling into cycles of reactive problem-solving. It’s faster, easier, and doesn’t disrupt the status quo. Additionally, organizations are facing more uncertainty than ever with shifts in: supply chain, their internal culture and other external factors. We are on a quest to help organizations get in front of problems and solve them before they even happen, and have an exciting lineup of speakers who feel the same. Join Tableau for this free, virtual event where you'll hear from data leaders at Verizon, Cargill, Kellogg Company, and The Wharton School, who will share how they transformed their organization’s culture to be one where data is essential to solving problems.

Managing one of the biggest Tableau sites in Verizon, his team's dashboards have been used company-wide to monitor call center operations. He was awarded the 2018 Directors Cut Award and several Verizon Spotlight Awards for his insights driven dashboards that reduced analysis time and supported many key business decisions. Sid's work and thought leadership has been featured in various articles, case studies and blogs including the Journal of Data Visualization Society and the Official Tableau Blog. He was invited to speak at the 2019 and 2018 Tableau Conference where he was recognized as one of top five customer speakers. Previously, Sid was the Head of Analytics & Finance at WTA Networks where he worked with some of the world's best athletes on monetizing their fan-base. Sid holds a Master's from New York University and his thesis focussed on corporate governance, risk assessment and equity return analysis of media and entertainment companies.

Speaker: Justin Shelite, Strategic Supply Chain Design and Analytics Manager, Cargill

During initial stages of the pandemic, many people scrambled to stock-pile food and supplies. We all know that animal protein, such as beef, was in short supply due to a drastic demand shift from foodservice to retail. At Cargill, we provide retail stores with the protein they need to supply their communities. To ensure equal and adequate supply among all these communities and stores, we had to find a good and efficient way to figure out where to ship our product with limited capacity. For Cargill, that meant relying on data that was visualized in a digestible way, available to all. We’ll show you how building a data driven culture allows for solving problems quickly and efficiently, avoiding problems in the future, and gaining some unexpected, yet positive, side effects.

Justin Shelite is a Strategic Supply Chain Design and Analytics Manager at Cargill and leads a team of amazing supply chain analysts out of Wichita, Kansas at the Cargill Protein headquarters. The team focuses on building a healthy data driven culture in our supply chain by keeping up to date digital twins of our supply chain for “what if” analysis and long-term scenario planning. We build data products and visualizations to help make faster, better data driven decisions. I’m married with 2 boys ages 9 and 11 that keep me busy coaching them in sports most of the year.

Speakers: Nolen Akerman, Principal Data Scientist - Global Analytics, Kellogg Company
Keith Wikle, Senior Solutions Architect, Kellogg Company

Large companies are faced with the need to provide data and insights to all their employees. Often, the data visualization talent is dispersed within various functional silos working on the same problems with redundant approaches. At Kellogg, we recognized the need to align our organization into a ‘hub’ to harness this talent and share among teams. During this session, we’ll provide tips & tricks to structure the hub, gain leadership approval and handle culture issues and will showcase the tools (KMAX rooms, style guides, and internal training) implemented.

Kellogg is based out of Battle Creek, Michigan and is a leading producer of cereal and a leader in crackers, savory snacks, and veggie food production.

He holds Ph.D. and M.S. degrees in industrial engineering from Western Michigan University and has conducted research on applying unstructured data analysis techniques for evaluation of product advantage components, organizational culture, and consumer feedback.

Keith Wikle is a Senior Solutions Architect within Kellogg’s IT organization responsible for the technical design and deployment of commercial analytics solutions. He is also the Data Viz lead for the Center of Excellence and Tableau Platform Owner. Keith joined Kellogg’s in 2012.

Companies are quickly recognizing that artful storytellers are the last puzzle piece needed to maximize the investment in data science, data lakes and terabytes of data. Companies are increasingly engaging in innovative corporate strategies to promote storytelling through experiential learning, test and learn practices and the power of upstream problem solving. New technologies and applications, such as ML, blockchain and AI are influencing corporate data and analytics strategies in ways that are only partially understood. It’s critical that enterprises foster a true, learning-based conversation around the effective use of such technologies and the framework that should govern their use.
