“Data doesn’t matter by itself. Who cares if you just have a pile of data in the back? It doesn’t matter.”

– Tim Lockie
Episode #128

Overview

In this episode of What the Fundraising Podcast…

Have you heard the myths that data management in nonprofits is too difficult, too expensive, and too time-consuming? Don’t believe everything you hear! Join this conversion with Tim Lockie to learn the truth about developing a sustainable relationship with data in your organization.

As Tim reminds us, data becomes information, and information becomes insight.

Hailing from Bozeman, Montana, Tim’s expertise lies in the intricate relationship between data, technology, and human behavior. As the Founder & CEO of The Human Stack, Tim has demonstrated a strong commitment to helping nonprofit leaders harness the power of data to make informed decisions.

Throughout his career, he excelled at combining data, technology, and human relationships. However, during a conference in 2019, Tim was struck by a statistic: While 90% of organizations collect data, only 5% use it to make decisions. This realization led Tim to question his entire approach to helping organizations, ultimately prompting him to develop a new method that focused on teaching people how to effectively utilize their data.

There is so much to learn from Tim’s unique perspective and extensive knowledge in the world of data management so dive in to this episode and meet Tim!
