Beyond the Code: Soft Skills in Data Are Now Strategic (w/ Felicia Newhouse)


Listen Later

AI isn't just accelerating productivity, it's reshaping how we structure power, make decisions, and define what "value" means in our organizations.

In this episode, Felicia Newhouse — a data leader, AI strategist, and advocate for ethical, human-centered innovation — brings deep insight into how power structures in business are being reimagined in the age of AI.

We dive into why so-called soft skills like communication, critical thinking, and emotional intelligence are becoming core differentiators in data and AI teams.

With research showing that companies deploying AI without leadership transformation risk ethical blind spots and cultural misalignment, we ask: What kind of leaders do we need now? And how can data professionals step into that shift?

What You'll Learn:
  • Why soft skills are no longer optional in data and AI roles

  • How leadership, ethics, and communication shape responsible AI outcomes

  • Real-world examples of companies gaining trust and performance by elevating human-centered skills
