There’s a subtle but important shift going on in how employers analyze and use data. Vendors aren’t only talking about analysis anymore – they’re talking more about actually using it. Among them is Qualtrics. They help their customers develop experiences – for employees and customers – based on what they can learn and predict from data. A lot of data.

I went to Qualtrics Experience Management Summit during the first week of May, and while I was there I talked with Matt Evans. He’s the company’s head of employee experience product science. We talked about data, obviously, but really focused on what you can accomplish when you pair it with AI. Listen in, on this edition of PeopleTech.
