The power of data is reshaping how organizations deliver their benefits strategies -- especially through the lens of population health. Historically, only large employers had access to meaningful data insights. But in the last decade, this has changed. Now organizations of all sizes can use data to guide smarter decisions, improve outcomes and control costs.

In this episode, MB Population Health & Data Strategist, Shelly Cherry shares why data is only as valuable as the strategy behind it. She explains how to use data to its full advantage, why organizations must be open to change and how shifting mindsets is just as critical as the numbers themselves.

Side Affects 150 | The Power of Data Guiding Your Benefits Strategy

You don't need to look around the technology industry too much to hear phrases such as "data is the new gold" or "data is the new oil", but like any good marketing phrase, it is based on a degree of fact.

It is certain that the modern organisation is becoming increasingly digital, transforming into one that is relying on data and digital workflows for its success, however when it comes to data, it's not how much data you have, it's what you do with it and learn from it that will determine who really wins.

That's the focus of this week's podcast as I'm joined by NetApp's Director, Technology and Strategy, Matt Watts.

In this episode, Matt provides fascinating insights into the modern data world, how extracting valuable information from data is a significant advantage to an organisation, how 3rd party companies working with storage vendors is critical to the future of data management and how companies like Microsoft, Amazon and IBM with Watson are commoditising machine learning and artificial intelligence to a point where, organisations of all sizes, can take advantage of these very smart tools to give them insights and understanding that just a few years ago was out of the reach for all but the very wealthiest of companies.

Listen in to hear how she built the case for xAPI, began a pilot project, and started achieving early wins, gaining results, and created something with shared value across teams in her organization.

Taking xAPI from Hobby to Organizational Change — Yet Podcast with Amy Parent

A little while back I wrote a blog post inspired by a presentation by a friend of mine, Michael Cade, at Cloud Field Day 5 back in April ,where he talked about how Veeam were developing their workload and data portability strategy.

This really struck a chord with me as it closely mirrored a lot of the conversations I was having, across businesses of all types, as they looked to develop more data-centric strategies, that focussed on ensuring that their data was where they needed it when.

It appealed so much that I’ve wanted to get it into a podcast episode. This week myself and Michael finally managed to get our diaries together to do just that. For those of you who’ve not heard Michael on the show before, he’s a Global Technologist at Veeam and a well-known face in the IT community and always a great Tech Interviews guest.

On this week’s show we cover;
•	The portability why
•	Why cost isn’t the only driver of public cloud
•	Portability and a data-centric strategy
•	Portability use cases
•	Putting our “backup data” to work
•	Three Drivers of innovation
•	The importance of licensing in innovation
•	How to build a portability platform

Data portability, for me, is core to a modern data strategy ensuring that our data and how we use it is the focus of our technology plans and companies like Veeam are delivering technology that can help us to enable the kind of portability modern business demands. 

If you’d like to follow up with Michael, the best way is via twitter @MichaelCade1 and you can find more on data portability, amongst other things, on his blog vzilla.co.uk.

Thanks for listening.
