P3 Adaptive
The data gene lurks everywhere, including deep in the heart of Texas High School Football! Enter Coach Chase Hargis, Defensive coach of the Magnolia High School Football team in Texas and also a data guy, who asked P3 Adaptive to help with a very specific data problem…how to visualize football data so as to give an edge to his players?
What’s the first feeling that you get when you hear the word Sales or Salesperson? We believe that most people do not get warm fuzzies when they hear those words! Carson Heady is Director, Health Solutions – U.S. Health & Life Sciences at Microsoft and shatters the negative stereotypes of the Salesperson. He is about as human and helpful as any guest we’ve had on the show, and we’re quite sure that his customers agree!
We’ve been quite busy not only just here at Raw Data, business at P3 Adaptive HQ has been booming! So much so, that we’ve had to add our 4th Director of Client Services to the team to keep up with our ever increasing business. His name is Angel Abundez, and his journey has zigzagged him across both Rob and Tom’s paths in the past (and maybe yours as well along the way) and has led him here today, sitting down and sharing his story with us!
If it wasn’t for Rob’s interaction with Dave Gainer during his time at Microsoft, there’s no doubt that Rob’s life and career path would have been vastly different, and very likely not in a good way! Dave currently is Vice President of Product for Microsoft Office, but he’s ALWAYS been a great leader of people.
Imke Feldmann is among the first few to have recognized the incredible value and potential of this thing called Power Pivot in Excel (which was the precursor to Power BI). And did she ever run with it, launching quite the successful solo consultancy and training service!
Chris Rae has had quite the data journey! In his current form, he’s the co-creator of MyCoast, an app that helps government entities clean up hazards on coastlines.
He’s travelled many paths on his journey, from the banking space to working on Excel and other projects at Microsoft and all points in between and beyond!
There’s a place where sports and data meet, and it’s as powerful a collision as on any football field! Currently, sports analytics drives professional teams to make decisions that affect the future of the organization. Jeff Sagarin has been a figurehead in the sports analytics realm for decades, and we’re thrilled to have had the chance to have him on to talk about his data journey!
Shelly Avery is a member of Microsoft’s Healthcare Solution Acceleration Team, helping Healthcare customers digitally transform their businesses. As you listen to this conversation you’ll realize, as we did, that Shelly knows the tech AND the human side of the tech very well!
We welcome Power Platform expertise in the form of Two Alex! Alex Dupler and Alex Powers both work at Microsoft. The organization they work for and their first names aren’t the only thing that these two share! They also both have a lot of experience with and passion for the Power Platform. These guys know data!
When Jen Stirrup speaks, she speaks softly. The meaning of her words, however, speak loudly! You don’t earn the nickname the Data Whisperer without knowing a great deal about Business Intelligence and AI. Jen certainly knows not only those topics, she knows SO much more!
We didn’t know what to expect when we sat down with Greg Beaumont, Senior Business Intelligence Specialist at Microsoft specializing in serving Microsoft’s Healthcare space customers’ technical Power BI issues. What we got was an insightful, delightful, and impactful conversation with a really cool and smart human!
Beyonce, Prince, Madonna…Like so many of these iconic one-word-name celebrities in the music world, Chandoo is as unique and talented as they come in the data world! His story is quite inspiring, his heart and soul are warm, and his brain is brimming with great ideas!
