Connected Insights Imperative Report Discussion

Marketing and insights teams still read the same data and reach opposite conclusions about when consumers actually enter the room. Nataly Kelly, CMO of Zappi, and Steve Phillips, Zappi's co-founder and Chief Innovation Officer, sit on opposite sides of that gap—one building brand strategy, the other building the systems that feed it—which is exactly why they unpacked Zappi's third annual Connected Insights Imperative report together. They dig into why rising "connectedness" hasn't translated into satisfaction, how to separate real AI acceleration from AI that just speeds up old workflows, and where synthetic data earns trust versus where it quietly misleads. The throughline for both audiences: insight has to stop living in reports and start living inside the tools where decisions actually get made.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
