The Women in Data Dinner & Forum will feature a panel discussion with representation from Fannie Mae, Wells Fargo and others that addresses the underutilization of women in data, particularly within the financial services industry.
Topics to be discussed include:
- How to eradicate unconscious bias in artificial intelligence algorithms
- The importance of diversity in data
- How to use collaboration, communication and teamwork more effectively to avoid "alpha male" decisions made in silos
- The valuable perspective women bring to the workplace
"Female talent remains one of the most underutilized resources in business today, according to the World Economic Forum's Global Gender Gap Report," said Cynthia Crossland, CMO at Waterline Data. "In technology and data in particular, the challenge for women in establishing equal footing in a traditionally male-dominated industry can be particularly formidable. Waterline Data is proud to host a series of dinners in major cities in 2019 as a forum for discussing ways we can all work together to achieve a higher level of diversity in data."
