Jack's story
When he started his data career 27 years ago, Jack was excited about extracting insights from data to drive business impact. Pretty soon he had to realize how statistics and machine learning can be intimidating to business colleagues and executives. Now, with the current hype around AI, it’s even more scary and nebulous.
Here is where Jack comes in: He simplifies and demystifies complex AI topics for business leaders. He goes beyond the flashy AI tools and turns the focus on the people factor, which is the key to making AI work.
Throughout his career, Jack has built and led data teams, developed data strategies, and helped companies get value from AI. Whether it was guiding executives to make better decisions or running programs to increase AI and data literacy, Jack’s approach has always been hands-on and pragmatic, adjusted based on what works and what doesn’t.
Jack’s technical and business backgrounds (Master of Science in Electrical Engineering, RWTH Aachen, Germany and MBA, University of Washington, Seattle, USA) have allowed him to bridge the gap between developers, users, and business leaders. Has has implemented data and AI solutions across multiple functions such as finance, operations, strategy, and marketing. His work included large high-tech companies (Tektronix & HP in the USA), pharma (MSD in Germany), and a startup (FinanceIsland in the USA) in between.
Today, Jack is a keynote speaker and advisor, helping companies address the human side of AI adoption. He focuses on the mindset shift needed to get business value from AI.
