What if the most enduring lessons about data leadership were brought to life through music?

Alissa Schneider, Executive Director, Enterprise Data & Insights at Sinclair Broadcast Group, will deliver an unconventional keynote titled “Data Truths: Brought to Life Through Song” at the CDO Magazine Dallas AI in the Enterprise Forum on August 27.

Senior data, analytics, and AI leaders will gather at Omni Las Colinas in Irving, Texas for a keynote unlike anything on the typical conference agenda.

Timeless data truths meet music

Every generation of technology promises to change everything. Yet the fundamentals of building successful data organizations remain remarkably consistent.

Through real-world leadership stories and live musical performances, Schneider will explore the principles that continue to determine whether data and AI strategies succeed:

• Earning stakeholder trust
• Improving enterprise data quality
• Creating shared ownership
• Strengthening cross-functional collaboration
• Building a sustainable data-driven culture

These lessons matter even more as organizations accelerate enterprise AI adoption. The technology may be new, but trusted data, clear accountability, and organizational alignment remain essential.

“Data and AI leaders hear constantly about what is changing, but some of the most important leadership principles remain timeless,” says Corey Maxner, Sr. Director, Community & Operations at CDO Magazine. “Alissa’s keynote will bring those lessons to life in a fresh, memorable, and practical way.”
