#28 Organizing Data Science Teams

What are best practices for organizing data science teams? Having data scientists distributed through companies or having a Centre of Excellence? What are the most important skills for data scientists? Is the ability to use the most sophisticated deep learning models more important than being able to make good powerpoint slides? Find out in this conversation with Jacqueline Nolis, a data science leader in the Seattle area with over a decade of experience. Jacqueline is currently running a consulting firm helping Fortune 500 companies with data science, machine learning, and AI. This interview is with Jacqueline Nolis, but at the time of recording, she went by Jonathan Nolis.
