About Ben Poole

Microsoft Certified: Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900), and Prosci Certified Change Management PractitionerAs a leader in technology transformation, enterprise data and analytics platforms, I partner across organizations to bring clarity to complex challenges by connecting data products, Process management, marketing, UX research, and process improvement to support business strategy. I’m a strong advocate for developers, engineers, and business users, translating their unique perspectives into actionable roadmaps that bridge gaps, identify the trade-offs, and drive organizational transformation. My UX roots are in web design, data analysis, product development, and user experience research. Like most geeks, I grew up building the web with PHP, C#.NET, Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Flash, HTML, CSS, SQL, MySql and JavaScript. My journey into data visualization includes Snowflake, Tableau, Google Looker, PowerBI and Atlan. And with collaboration at the heart of delivering business value, the BEST tools are often a clean whiteboard and a healthy debate.I lead a team of talented data storytellers building Certified Data Products on a modern technology stack including Snowflake, Google Looker, Microsoft Power BI and Tableau. I put credibility, trust, and performance at the center of home-grown process for building data products from discovery through enablement, and beyond to product marketing to support Product Led Growth efforts that bring engineering closer to customer needs and the KPIs that drive business outcomes.I am Microsoft Azure Certified, and a Prosci® Certified Change
