The first step
For many things in life, the first step is easy to figure out.
If you want to…
Buy a house then the first step is to find a realtor.
Get married then the first step is to go out on a date.
Get a job then the first step is to prepare your resume.
Start a business then the first step is to register an LLC.
Make dinner at home then the first step is to go grocery shopping.
With other things, the first step is less clear.
What’s the first step for reducing your company’s carbon footprint?
…raising kids who will be successful adults?
…knowing when or how to plan for retirement?
…or building a cloud data platform?
These types of questions require a detailed analysis of your situation, dreams for the future, and constraints of your context, and the answer often ends up with “it depends”.
These are the type of questions that we often talk through with experts. An environmental consultant, a parenting coach or therapist, a financial planner, or an experienced data expert.
Often, over the course of a few conversations, some ideas start to emerge. It might even look like a plan.
At the very least, it could get you to your first step toward what you want.
Just a little closer and more clear about how
you can build the data platform of your dreams*.

*or raise kids, plan for retirement, and reduce your carbon footprint if that’s your thing.
p.s. I love helping data leaders identify and craft their first step toward a cloud data platform. If that sounds even remotely interesting, hit reply or schedule a free call.
