In our conversation, Kaykas-Wolff touches on, among other things, trust, data and lean data practices, and what it means for a company to stand for something.
Kaykas-Wolff points out that, in this age of data breaches and companies unwittingly sharing consumer information, lack of trust is at a crisis level. “In the U.S., trust is not just declining — it’s crashing,” says Kaykas-Wolff.
“In the last year, we’ve had almost a 20 percent decrease in trust, in the popularly informed public, in the U.S. alone. This is a crisis of confidence that the general population has in businesses.”
Kaykas-Wolff went on to add, “We’re not taking good care of our customers’ data, and that impacts the trust that they have in us.”
