CChief Data Officer (CDO)
Our teams were stuck in reactive decision-making cycles due to disconnected data sources and reliance on outdated tools. The lack of real-time insights created delays, while inconsistent metrics led to misguided strategies. With KanBo, we’ve shifted to a proactive, data-driven culture where decisions are faster, more accurate, and better aligned with our business goals.
