In this episode of Data Democracy, I sit down with Christopher Chin — communications coach, TEDx speaker, and founder of Hidden Speaker — to talk about one of the most overlooked skills in data and AI: communication. As AI takes over more of the technical heavy lifting, the real differentiator isn’t just building models — it’s making ideas land. We explore why so many technically strong professionals struggle to communicate their work, how storytelling and emotion influence decision-making, and why “knowing your audience” is one of the most underrated skills in data. Chris shares practical frameworks for turning complex ideas into clear, impactful messages — and why communication should be treated as a structured, learnable discipline (just like coding). If you’ve ever felt like your work isn’t getting the recognition or traction it deserves, this episode is for you. Topics we cover: - Why great technical work often fails to land - The role of emotion in decision-making - How to tailor your message to different audiences - Communication as a skill you can actually learn - Storytelling with data in the age of AI Resources: Christopher Chin - - LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/thehiddenspeaker/ - Website - https://thehiddenspeaker.com/ Vin Mitty - - LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/vinayakmitty/ - Website - https://vmitty.com/Subscribe for more conversations with leaders shaping the future of data and AI. #DataDemocracy #DataStorytelling #AI #Leadership #Communication
