Building Your Authority in Data Science
Friend-of-the-list, Genevieve Hayes invited me to guest on her podcast Value Driven Data Science to discuss how to find your niche and build a reputation as an authority in your space.
From the show notes:
Data science is an in-demand skill. Yet, many data scientists find it challenging to get started in the industry and to differentiate themselves from other data scientists once they find a job.
In the latest episode of Value Driven Data Science, I’m joined by authority-building guru Jonathan Stark, author of Hourly Billing is Nuts and co-host of The Business of Authority podcast, to discuss how data scientists can find their niche and establish their reputation as a data science authority.
Some of the things we discuss in this episode include:
- How data scientists can build their authority and move away from being viewed as commodities.
- The benefits of specialization, both as an independent professional and as an employee of a larger organization.
- Is it necessary to manage staff in order to establish your credibility as an authority in data science?
- How your authority as a data scientist, once established, could potentially be leveraged both within the corporate world and as a springboard into an independent career.
