#323 The Evolution of Data Literacy & AI Literacy with Jordan Morrow, Godfather of Data Literacy


Listen Later

Data literacy and AI literacy are becoming essential skills in today's digital landscape. As organizations collect more data and deploy AI solutions, the ability to understand, interpret, and make decisions with these tools is increasingly valuable. But how do we develop these skills effectively across an organization? What does successful implementation of data and AI literacy programs look like in practice? The journey to becoming data literate doesn't require becoming a data scientist—it's about building confidence and comfort with data in your specific role. From change management strategies to measuring real value, understanding how to foster these skills can transform both individual careers and organizational outcomes.

Jordan Morrow is known as the "Godfather of Data Literacy," having helped pioneer and invent the entire field. He is also the founder and CEO of Bodhi Data and currently is the Senior Vice President of Data & AI Transformation for AgileOne, helping to utilize data and AI in the total talent management space.


Jordan is a global trailblazer in the world of data literacy and enjoys his time traveling the world speaking and/or helping companies. He served as the Chair of the Advisory Board for The Data Literacy Project, has spoken at numerous conferences around the world, and is an active voice in the data and analytics community. He has also helped companies and organizations around the world, including the United Nations, build and/or understand data literacy.


In the episode, Richie and Jordan explore the progress and challenges in data literacy, the integration of AI literacy, the importance of storytelling and decision-making in data training, how organizations can foster a data-driven culture, practical tips for using AI in meetings and personal productivity, and much more.
