33 Tangents - Episode #156 - Employee Autonomy and PTO
April 21, 2021 14:05 - 45 minutes - 84 MBTwo years ago in the episode “Is Unlimited Time Off Actually Unlimited?”, Jim, Hila, and Jason took a hard look at the concept of unlimited PTO to see if it’s something employees find valuable or just a gimmick. They left that conversation genuinely questioning the value of “unlimited” PTO. In the time since, Jim and Jason have discussed the topic several time through multiple means, most recently on Twitter. On this week’s episode of the 33 Tangents Podcast, Jim and Jason continue ...

April 07, 2021 14:00 - 39 minutes - 73.2 MBWe’ve all experienced the situation with a client where we know the data they are talking about is nothing more than a distraction. It can be data that they have identified as needing to be collected or data they already collect. When asked about it, you get the response that “just might need it in the future”.

33 Tangents - Episode #152 - The Toxic Cesspool that is Social Media
March 24, 2021 14:00 - 53 minutes - 97.9 MBIt’s not a far stretch to say that the current state of social media is that of a toxic cesspool. Many would say that that the social media platforms that are widely used today started out with the good intention of enabling people to connect with greater easy and frequency. Today social media allows people to isolate in bias confirming echo chambers. It has devalued relationships to where they are only valued by number of friends and number of likes. On this week’s episode of 33 Tange...

33 Tangents - Episode #149 - Embracing Learning from Mistakes and How That Can Propel Your Testing Program
March 03, 2021 14:00 - 50 minutes - 93.4 MBIt seems like there is a great deal of talk about the importance of learning from mistakes. The problem with that however is that most people are so fearful that they do everything they can to either avoid making mistakes or to hide them when they do happen. People do not feel encouraged to take calculated risks that will provide opportunities to learn? Why is this the case? Why is there talk about it but fear when faced with it? How can this overall mindset within an organization impac...

February 10, 2021 14:41 - 47 minutes - 86.4 MBHow do you explain to your organization’s leadership that the work involved with an analytics implementation is never finished?

33 Tangents - Episode #145 - The So-Called “Cookie-less” Future
February 03, 2021 14:17 - 44 minutes - 81.5 MBIt feels like we have another round of “all cookies are dying” conversations happening again. Companies are being pushed to adopt some sort of server side technology now or all data will be lost. What is actually happening? What is the truth? Is it all fear, uncertainty, and doubt or is there some legitimacy to it? Do companies need to jump immediately or is there still time to see how things develop? On this week’s episode of 33 Tangents, Jim and Jason discuss what they’re seeing, w...

January 27, 2021 14:00 - 45 minutes - 84.1 MBStress is a normal part of life and under normal circumstances, it ebbs and flows. If you’re not careful however, feeling stressed can lead to burnout.

33 Tangents - Episode #143 - Ensuring Remote Work Does Not Become Toxic
January 20, 2021 14:00 - 56 minutes - 103 MBRemote work has become the norm for office workers over the last 9 months. Many will be working remotely full time, or the majority of the time, for another 6-9 months. Those that had been working remotely in the years prior to 2020 experienced a great deal of freedom to design their day. Lately, however, we’ve started seeing companies turning the remote work setup into a bastardized & micro-managed version of the office. How do we ensure that remote work does not become toxic and th...

33 Tangents - Episode #134 - Should You Keep Your Personal and Work Lives Separate?
November 20, 2020 14:00 - 49 minutes - 89.9 MBIn the business world, there are two schools of thought about a person’s work and personal lives and it’s a constant debate.

33 Tangents - Episode #130 - Re-examining Unlimited PTO
October 23, 2020 14:00 - 47 minutes - 87.3 MBThe concept of unlimited PTO has always been polarizing. Some see it as a great benefit while others see it as a bait and switch. In an episode in July 2019 we asked the question if unlimited time off it truly unlimited. Recently there was a debate on Twitter on the actual benefit of unlimited PTO which made us want to revisit the topic. Do employees really see the benefit of unlimited PTO?

33 Tangents - Episode #129 - Getting Started
October 16, 2020 14:00 - 49 minutes - 91.3 MBWhen we have an idea, we envision the perfect version of the outcome. This vision, while inspiring, can also create a state of paralysis. We don’t want to produce anything less than that pristine vision not realizing that the imperfect iterations that come before are necessary to reach that state. What is the difference between imperfect and incomplete? Why do we often miss that so many others had to take small, iterative steps to get where they are now? On this week’s episode of the 33...

October 02, 2020 14:00 - 52 minutes - 96.6 MBOn this week’s episode of 33 Tangents, we continue the conversation we had a few weeks ago regarding the proper ratio of technology to people. As a traditional analyst, a person would set aside 70%-80% of my time to clean, wrangle, re-align data. Digital analytics promised the analyst that it would be solved for and the need to spend so much time prepping would be reduced drastically. We’re treating digital analytics like traditional analytics and forcing the analyst to do a massive am...

August 14, 2020 14:00 - 54 minutes - 99 MBIn 2006 Avinash published his 90/10 rule for success in web analytics: for every $10 a company spent on analytics technology, they should spend $90 on people to use it. His argument was that while companies had “great investements” in analytics they struggled to use it to make meaningful decisions. The cause? All of that investment was made in the technology and not those who would run it. All these years later, we still see this with many companies. Why is it that a large amount of m...

33 Tangents - Episode #117 - Metrics that Matter
July 24, 2020 14:00 - 57 minutes - 106 MBTag managers such as Launch and GTM have lowered the barriers that existed in years past that made deploying new data collection rules difficult.

33 Tangents - Episode #110 - Being Human at Work
June 05, 2020 14:00 - 49 minutes - 90.9 MBWe’ve been conditioned that we need to have a corporate image while at work. Personal items remain at home and are not intermingled with work. Personal causes and beliefs should be suppressed and not shared. The last couple of months have been trying on multiple fronts. People are scared, stressed out, and struggling to manage at times.
