There are two types of data influencers on LinkedIn:
1. Those who talk directly about the products and companies they work for
2. Those that provide more general guidance, tips and opinionsCan influencers actually be passionate about the products they’re developing and straightforwardly talk about them without sounding salesly?
We’re kicking off 2024 with the amazing Megan Lieu on a new Data Engineering Show episode.
Megan is one of those influencers that combine the two approaches, and with almost 100K followers, her content seems to be resonating with many data folks.
She talked to the bros about her approach to data advocacy as well as the power of notebooks, especially when they become broader and enable collaboration.
