Quantifying Happiness:  

A Data-Driven Approach to Growing Amazing Organizations

January Chapter Meeting

Tuesday, January 17, 2017

Sheraton Bellevue

100 112th Ave. NE,

Bellevue, WA

Best practices for driving adoption are common, but few are able to predict the results of their efforts in advance, whether it is for a new marketing program or data governance project. We believe this comes down to answering a simple question, "How do you get people to happily embrace constant change?" To answer that, we combined the best practices of sales and marketing with emerging research from behavioral science to build a predictive model that can be used by anyone who wants to leverage data to drive lasting change. Doing so means rethinking how you use data to understand and engage your people.

What You Will Learn:

1. Why Change Management must change

2. What emerging behavioral science tells us about why we do what we do

3. Adapting to a new paradigm: Why we're all salespeople and marketers now

4. Why data management professionals are uniquely positioned to enable this
