From the cradle to the grave, you are measured against the ever-present yardstick of the average, judged according to how closely you approximate it or how far you can exceed it. Our modern conception of the average person is not a mathematical truth but a human invention, created a century and a half ago by two European scientists (Quetelet and Galton) to solve the social problems of their era.

Todd Rose speaks about this in his bestseller - End of Average.

These words have made me dig deep into the minds of data analytics leaders, people that work every day with measurements and metrics, to uncover what mental models they have built through their specialization that help them understand the world.

Join us while we focus on the stories of data analytics leaders and how they use mental models to challenge others to think differently by deviating from the standard beyond tools and technology.
