Arvidsson has seen it all – from hardcore Oracle backends to the
latest in Microsoft Fabric. In this episode of Daten-WG podcast,
he shares why technical skills are not enough to make data
impactful.

He talks openly about the cultural differences in data
communication (think Germany vs. Sweden), warns against blind
tool enthusiasm, and explains why trust matters more than
pristine data quality.

His take on Fabric is especially compelling: powerful, yes – but
dangerously unfiltered in the wrong hands.We discuss why
governance must be practical, not bureaucratic, and how “minimum
viable governance” can be a key to adoption.

Alexander also reflects on his own journey – from someone who
disliked people to someone who teaches how to make data matter.

This conversation is loaded with sharp insights and honest takes
– ideal for anyone who wants to move from just building
dashboards to actually driving decisions with data.
