Data Impact
Q: So Ritavan, tell us why readers should pick up Data Impact beyond the tech details.
The book reframes data as a means to improve real business decisions in legacy sectors, emphasizing a first-principles approach, a clear thesis, and empirical verification to ensure data efforts translate into tangible growth, not just dashboards.
A new Ethos in Banking
Q: What changes have you seen in bankers' conversations since you started Banking Scene?
Bankers have shifted from reactive to proactive mindsets, with fintechs and neobanks prompting a rebalancing, and a stronger emphasis on relevance and ownership of industry transformation.
A new Ethos in Banking
Q: Where can listeners find the book and learn more about you?
Listeners can find the book at major online retailers and the publisher's site; Ric can be reached via LinkedIn, and there are mentions of book signings at CybOS in Frankfurt.
A new Ethos in Banking
Q: How did you conceive this book and why is it relevant now?
The book grew from conversations with industry professionals and prior conferences; it presents a strategic framework for governance and the deployment of banking activities, highlighting that ethos matters as much as technical capability.
Undisruptable
Q: How can individuals and organizations reconcile the impulse for stability with the need for constant adaptation, especially in a regulatory or banking context?
Embrace the paradox by treating change as a normal state, building processes that celebrate experimentation, and using mechanisms like staged investments and learnings to gradually surface what works while preserving core strengths.
