There’s a difference between data that looks good and data that does something.
This episode is for people making real decisions – in business, in community, in government – who are done with surface-level dashboards and chasing trends. Curtis explains why smart strategy today is less about having more tools, and more about asking better questions.
We talk through how organisations – from fast-moving startups to established public agencies — are building smarter systems without blowing the budget, the culture, or the trust of their people.
No hype. Just real insight into:
✔️ What actually matters when you’re deciding where to invest, cut, or pivot
✔️ How to build data fluency across your team — without needing everyone to be a ‘tech person’
✔️ Why the smartest leaders aren’t obsessing over AI — they’re folding it quietly into sharper decisions
There’s also a quiet warning here: if you don’t know what your data is really telling you, you’re already behind. Because your competitors, your stakeholders, your funders — they’re moving. And they’re watching.
This conversation lands where it matters: at the intersection of loyalty, logic and legacy. Curtis unpacks how to lead in uncertainty without losing your edge — or your people.
If you’ve been looking for a way to steady the ship without standing still — this is it.
Let’s get clarity — together.
