SCOTT TAYLOR - The Data Whisperer

Let me help you TELL YOUR DATA STORY 

I can be your voice for Data Management 

Partnering with Enterprises and innovative Data Brands that want to change the nature of data management - and help them tell their story!

As **The Data Whisperer** I help "calm data down" 

I am a firm believer in “making your data do the work,” and have enlightened countless business executives to the value of proper data management by focusing on the strategic rationale and business alignment rather than technical implementation and system integration. 

I'm more of the strategic WHY than the technical HOW. 

I have spent over two decades solving master data challenges with large global enterprises as well as guiding Tech Brand owners to leverage their reference data and taxonomy assets.  

In a variety of strategic marketing, GTM, innovation and consulting roles, I have worked with some of the world’s most iconic business data brands including Dun & Bradstreet, Nielsen, Microsoft, Kantar, NPD as well as start-ups such as Qoints and Spiceworks.  

I'm an avid business evangelist and original thinker, and continually share my passion for the strategic value of foundational data through public speaking opportunities, blogs, videos, whitepapers, podcasts and all forms of marketing content. 

Highly effective strategic Subject Matter Expert/SME working directly with sales and alliances to reinforce the value of data management.

If you are an innovative Tech Brand looking to change the very nature of data management let me help you tell a better story!

If your hair is on fire every time you upgrade Apache Spark… 🔥

You’re not alone. For many teams, Spark upgrades set off a full on fire drill: chasing deprecated APIs, fixing dependencies, and validating data, all while keeping production running.

At AWS re:Invent they announced an AI-powered Spark upgrade agent for Amazon EMR that changes everything. It works inside your IDE to:

📈Analyze and modernize code
🛠️Fix build and runtime issues
✅Validate tests and data outputs

What used to take months of engineering effort can now be done in hours, or even minutes.

Less fire. 🔥 More warmth. ☺️

If you’re running Spark on Amazon Web Services (AWS) EMR, this is worth checking out.

Bridging the gap between data and strategy ✦ Lead Data Strategy Consultant @ Redkite ✦ R Programmer ✦ Policy Nerd

Okay I probably have your attention here for about 10 seconds, so I’m going to be quick:

My niche is navigating the complex data world for organisations to help them deliver on their strategy

Basically, I bridge the gap between data and strategy

Want to know more? Here is how I do it:

💡 Learned as a strategy consultant what matters and what doesn’t
🎤 Storytell to help clients implement effectively (how do you properly engage the audience and infuse that story with the key takeaways/ implications)
💻 Use my R coding and strategy consulting experience to bridge the data scientist's "get lost in the data" approach with the "tell me what I need to know on one page" approach of the business executive
★ Live off my passion to see through positive outcomes, be that at work, on my blog or even when helping a friend

So why should you care?

1) I post my best tips 3-5x per week on LinkedIn
2) I make it relevant to you, as a student, business professional, executive, or whomever. My goal is to share relevant stuff with my audience
3) I try to be unique in what I share and deliver, as few people have the combination of experience I boast
4) I value feedback and input from all others out there. I pride myself on learning from others' perspectives so please add it to my content!
