How to maximize learning and minimize risk.
All new products start as a series of unvalidated assumptions. The most critical assumptions are usually implicit and relate to the purpose of the product and the value it is intended to deliver. The more key assumptions involved, the greater the risk. It is enough to have 7 key assumptions about which you are 90% certain for the combined odds of success to be below 50%.
Contrary to popular belief, when we know very little about a situation, it only takes a small amount of new data to realise significant insights.
Unfortunately, people often underestimate the value of information and misunderstand risk. As Product Owners we are often afraid to test our assumptions. We routinely pile on additional risk without a second thought.
Do we have a death wish or are we simply masochists? Risk management is the bread and butter of the finance and insurance industries. Isn’t it time we evolved?
In this fast paced and practical session we will explore answers to the following questions:
- What is risk and how do we quantify and manage it?
- How do we assess the value of information?
- How can experimentation reduce risk and where does it fit in the product development cycle?
- What makes a good experiment?
- How to run experiments in a cost effective manner?
- What are good metrics?
- How to obtain Zen like focus and prioritisation?
New concepts will be introduced, examples will be given and we will then point out where to seek further information. Hold onto your hats.

The objective was to develop a neural network model to predict loan defaults using variables like number of derogatory reports, number of delinquent credit lines, debt-to-income ratio, age of oldest credit line, and loan divided by value. The best model had a training profit of $25.48 million and testing profit of $27.48 million, outperforming logistic regression. Key changes were reducing variables and lowering the probability cutoff, which increased profits and lift. The neural network model was simpler, more consistent and predictable than complex models, with training and testing profits varying less than $150,000.
This document summarizes a dissertation on consumer attitudes toward mobile payments. It describes the research process, which included observing a mobile point-of-sale provider, conducting focus groups, reviewing literature, and developing a research model. A questionnaire was distributed and data was analyzed, finding that relative advantage, compatibility with prior practices, and effort expectancy positively influenced adoption, while perceived costs did not. The implications are that emphasizing convenience may not drive growth, and consistent experience, business opportunities, and understanding behavioral patterns could influence changes in behavior. Future trends of value-added services, security improvements, and data-driven tools may benefit mobile payments solutions.
This document discusses Paychex's use of predictive modeling and data science to reduce client retention. It summarizes:
1) Paychex developed its first predictive retention model in 2009 and has since improved the model through dynamic model averaging and including new variables.
2) Concept drift, where the relationships and distributions underlying the model change over time, poses a challenge. Paychex addresses this through population stability indexing and dynamic model averaging.
3) Paychex's current approach uses logistic regression with LASSO to dynamically include and exclude variables in the model based on their importance, and averages historical models to predict client loss probabilities and target retention efforts.

[DSC Europe 22] The Making of a Data Organization - Denys HolovatyiDataScienceConferenc1
Data teams often struggle to deliver value. KPIs, data pipelines, or ML driven predictions aren't inherently useful - unless the data team enables the business to use them. Having worked on 37 data projects over the past 5 years, with total client revenue clocking at about $350B, I started noticing simple success factors - and summarized those in the Operating Model Canvas & the Value Delivery Process. With those, I branched out into what I call data organization consulting and help clients build their data teams for success, the one you see not only on paper but also in your P&L. In this talk, I'll share some insight with you.
