Sebastian Wernicke Biography

Currently an Engagement Manager at Oliver Wyman, Sebastian Wernicke originally studied bioinformatics at Friedrich-Schiller-Universität Jena. During his time in academia, he devised an algorithm for analyzing biological networks that now aids researchers in dealing with their innate complexity.

Before his career in statistics began, Wernicke worked stints as both a paramedic and successful short animated filmmaker. He's also the author of the TEDPad app, an irreverent tool for creating an infinite number of "amazing and really bad" and mostly completely meaningless talks. He's the author of the statistically authoritative and yet completely ridiculous "How to Give the Perfect TEDTalk."

Sebastian Wernicke Speaking Topics

  • Unstuck: How organizations can accelerate decision making

    Constant change is the new normal. This requires organizations to become ever more dynamic, flexible, and resilient. New working models are offered as a solution, as well as tools like AI and Big Data. However, reality often looks different: the initial spirit of optimism quickly gives way to frustration as the desired positive dynamic simply does not appear. So what to do?

    There is an often-overlooked perspective that can provide relief: In order to be more dynamic and agile, we need to make decisions. But decision making is hard – unless we clear up a few misconceptions about what decisions are and how we can make them more efficiently and better.

    The talk will take the audience on a journey in four stages:

    • Part 1 shows how typical elements of an organization (structure, processes, roles) are not as relevant for success as they seem, but rather the flow of decisions that they produce.
    • Part 2 shows that decision making is often misunderstood – leading to blockages in the decision flow.
    • Part 3 shows the important role data and AI play in the decision framework as accelerators or deterrents, depending how they are used.
    • Part 4 brings it all together to show how decision-makers can accelerate the decision flow in their organization in such a way that it becomes more sustainable, stable, dynamic and powerful.

    The audience will receive three valuable tools for the future:

    • Diagnostics: What are the causes of everyday frustration and a lack of dynamic in the organization?
    • Solution Focus: What decision issues really need to be solved and how?
    • Influence: How to maximize one's own influence and impact in the organization"

  • How data makes decisions better by making them more difficult

    Data offers us the promise of making better decisions faster, more rational, and more certain. In short: More data promises better decisions. But many organizations and decision makers are learning that these promises seldom hold up.

    Why is it that despite ever more data, changing decisions for the better seems to be hard as ever? This talk breaks down this question by showing what can go wrong when we constantly hunt for the latest insights, but forget about their role in changing decisions and actions for the better.

    Audience benefits:

    • Understand what Big Data and AI really are all about • beyond the buzzwords
    • See how data can help decision making • and where it's not needed
    • Get practical tools to become better decision makers
    • Learn how to outsource decisions to AI successfully
