Pauline McKinney has unlocked hero status at companies for 20 years by delighting bosses and boards with powerful + automated analytics. She’s the founder of Be The Data Hero, an audaciously irreverent company on a mission to teach busy business owners and executives data skills so they can rocket to their biggest goals faster and easier than ever before. 

Pauline Founded BTDH in response to an increasingly complex and rushed data project landscape with a heavy focus on the technology, the data, and the tools – but left behind the most critical component: the people. There’s a behemoth-sized gap between the technical environments built for businesses and the business and end user’s ability to navigate that world and get the answers they need without being overwhelmed and frustrated by the technical jargon and knowledge necessary to just get the answers to their questions quickly.

Pauline’s big mission is to build a bridge and connect all people to their data in fun and easy to learn ways. She makes data accessible to all, so they can enjoy the incredible power and benefits of using data: a time and energy saving way to understand, focus, and get answers to their big questions – so they can run their business with clarity and speed. 

She’s terrified of runny egg yolks. She has been known to break into spontaneous dance in the kitchen while cooking, and she has made it her entire life without knowing how to whistle.
