Breaking the Bias - International Women's Day 2022

19m · Coeo Conversations Podcast · 03 Mar 00:00

Join primary speaker Julie Phillipps in conversation with Fiona Lim (alliance manager at Coeo) as they discuss breaking the bias ahead of International Women’s day! As we well know, we each have a collective responsibility to navigate our biased language, actions, and thoughts. Through this conversation, we hope to raise self-awareness and help others recognise what bias looks like in themselves and how to approach it consciously.  

The thoughts expressed throughout this episode of the Coeo podcast transcend context. Bias can arise anywhere and everywhere, from the workplace to the media and even in our personal lives. When discussing the origin of the word, Fiona Lim sheds some light on the etymological meaning: “slope or angle- something that was weighted to one side.” 

All of us are individually responsible for our language, actions and thoughts and should be held accountable as such. However, with a predisposed culture of judgement, how can we avoid making snap judgements based on entrenched conscious and subconscious bias? Listen in as Julie Phillipps, and Fiona Lim delve further into the meaning of bias, the different types, and the importance of recognising it in modern society.

Coeo Conversations Podcast - A Recap of SQLBits 2022

This episode of the Coeo podcast is hosted by Justin Langford along with our team: Victoria Holt, Jessica Healey and Niall Quinn. They discuss the concept of hybrid events, and we hear from the team on their initial thoughts, expectations, and key takeaways.

As Victoria aptly mentions, the SQLBits event is in many ways 'the event of the year'! With a mixture of novice and seasoned attendees, this conversation takes a deep dive into some of our teams' expectations prior to arrival, honest impressions, and so much more.

A second key element that the team were keen to explore throughout this episode was the topical concept of hybrid events. With the event returning for the very first time since the pandemic, a question on many people's minds is how a physical event measures in comparison to virtual attendance.

Tune in as they discuss their thoughts and experiences of SQLBits 2022.

Data Retail Trends and the Pandemic

The retail industry is undergoing some radical changes right now, and one of the biggest trends to come out of it has been the rise of data in retail – or rather, how retailers are collecting, using, and selling their customers’ personal data.

Learn about these trends, what they mean for your business, and how you can capitalise on them! 

Where are we seeing these data trends?
Speaking with retailers, you’ll find that a pandemic-like mentality has taken hold—it’s the hottest thing in town. The question isn’t whether or not to adopt data, but how to do it well. And, unfortunately, poor data quality is one of their biggest challenges.
