♥️ Collaborative leader: managing operations for Positive Thinking Company Germany and leading global strategy & alignment of our Data & Analytics practice
Caro is from Ravensburg and after graduating from high school she moved to Berlin for 10 years. She studied business administration for a bachelor’s degree and then acquired a master’s degree in statistics at the Humboldt University in Berlin.
Her subsequent career start as a data scientist was exactly at the right time, as there were hardly any data scientists in Germany and she was able to help set up and develop real best practices and data science teams. She has accompanied clients such as Miele, Deutsche Bahn, VW and various medium-sized companies.
She is Global Head of Data & Analytics for the entire Positive Thinking Company as well as Leading Partner for PTC Germany+Austria. It is a matter close to her heart that leadership always means collaboration - to create a culture in which employees are happy to contribute and get involved.

Lost in Translation: IT, Softwareentwickler:innen, Datenexpert:innen und Fachabteilungen sprechen unterschiedliche Sprachen, wenn es um Projekte geht. Das Resultat sind schlechte Briefings, Projektverzögerungen und im schlimmsten Fall das Scheitern ganzer Aufträge und Produkteinführungen. Diese Masterclass zeigt , wie Unternehmen zu einer abteilungsübergreifenden Sprache kommen und so ihre interne Kommunikation erfolgreich meistern.
Dauer: ~ 60 Minuten inklusive Q+A.

This talk is in: German How to Build a Successful AI Strategy
During covid, webinars became incredibly important. I'm not a big fan of the format but it's nice for replays maybe so you can get an idea of how I'm presenting & talking so I include one in my references. And I'm doing lot of talks on AI strategy so here we go:
"By the end of 2024, 75% of enterprises will shift from piloting to operationalizing AI"- Gartner.
If you have an interest in data or AI, then you already heard this kind of sentence. And yet here is the question you keep asking yourself: How? And after that: Where do I start? Confusing, isn't it?
Establishing AI and becoming a data-driven company is a very complex journey. You must consider many dimensions including strategy, processes and use cases, not to mention the organization. Yet, based on our proven experience, we can tell that organizations can achieve their vision only by having an effective AI strategy.
Duration: ~60 Minutes incl. Q+A
