Stefan Harris reveals how his experience during NASA’s Columbia mission transformed his approach to responsible data leadership.
Drawing from his 30-year journey as a data executive across NASA, Wells Fargo, Facebook, VMware, and Microsoft, Stefan shares how data can be a literal lifeline in high-stakes environments.
He explores the concept of operating at the “speed of trust,” balancing innovation with responsible data governance, and why he sees data leaders as “activators” who translate insights into action.
Stefan’s powerful perspective on “Data Darwinism” demonstrates why organizations that deeply understand and effectively structure their data gain critical evolutionary advantages in today’s business landscape.
