21 Apr: Will Artificial Intelligence replace my job? (Spoiler: no, it will make it better)

With contributions from Peter McGraw and Mike Mullen

19 Apr: Cracking the Myth of Long Investment Banker Hours

A widely-reported recent survey of first year analysts at Goldman Sachs revealed that they work on average more than 95 hours per week, and sleep around 5 hours each night.

12 Feb: Cleanse, AI-Powered Contact Quality Management for B2B

Keeping contact information up-to-date within a customer relationship management (CRM) system is difficult — especially for customer-facing staff. Not only are these employees strapped for time — they are often unaware of departures and physical moves their contacts have made. This causes discrepancies in CRM data quality, leading to bigger troubles down the line.

Managing data often requires staffing a team dedicated solely to data stewardship, which requires a significant investment in people and time resources. Organizations seem to have two choices: either staff a data stewardship team to constantly work in a reactive cycle to outpace data decay and…
