Jacqueline “Jaki” Stockwell is the CEO & Founder of Leadership Through Data, a global company who provide information management training and consultancy to both public and private sectors.

Alongside running the business, Jaki is also a professional speaker and is invited to attend international conferences and events. Jaki’s sessions are all about teaching information managers how to deliver fun, engaging and informative presentations to their colleagues in their respective businesses. As information managers know, it’s important that everyone in a business understands what information management is, however getting them to listen and comply is undeniably difficult. Jaki’s teaching methods empower information managers to think differently and use psychology along with a combination of styles to get their message across; after all, one size doesn’t fit all.

As well as being an international speaker, Jaki’s creative and inspirational leadership style and proactive approach to information management has led her to mentor others. She is quoted by clients and industry peers who say that “her positive attitude is infectious” and “she is totally human in her approach”.

Jacqueline’s aim in her career is to simplify information management what is unfortunately viewed as a complex and uninteresting topic, into relevant practical and enjoyable solutions which can be understood and implemented by all. The safety and security of information is both key to successful businesses but also a threat to their success if not managed effectively.

Whether in business or in her personal life, Jaki is always mindful of her sustainability efforts. At home she loves to upcycle and breathe new life into preloved furniture and décor. She loves to craft and sew and enjoys gardening and growing fruit and vegetables - no matter how successful the harvest may be .

The scalable impact of IT solutions drew Lorenz toward completing a B.Sc. in Business Information Systems, which provided him with a strong foundation in data science, IoT and IT strategy. This expertise allowed him to drive digital transformation initiatives within Deutsche Telekom, one of Europe’s largest telecommunications companies.

Paul is an expert ontologist & innovator, specialising in healthcare. Having personally read and manually themed the comments of several hundred thousand patients, employees, and people with mental health challenges, gives Paul a unique expert lived experience perspective.

Akumen the company he founded has now digitally themed and analysed over twelve million patient comments for more than fifty healthcare organisations, including all of NHS Wales. Every day, Akumen processes 10,000 comments, equivalent to 150,000 words, uncovering valuable insights for improvement and innovation, giving patients a collective voice. We balance technology with human insight to deliver systems that support the increasing convergence of Human and Machine.

Paul’s holy grail is the study of meaning and wisdom, the catalyst for this pursuit, a near-death experience which happened in his early farming career. By mapping 40,000 wisdom quotes Paul will uncover the DNA of Wisdom which he hopes will steer Artificial Intelligence towards much needed wisdom.

Adding to Paul's extraordinary story is his background as a farmer. Although his farming days are behind him, he now keeps bees and grow trees on a 5-acre field near the cliffs of North Cornwall.

Outside of work, Paul can often be found hauling plastic waste from North Cornwall’s coves and beaches, sometimes using ropes and a yoke to carry waste for a mile and up five hundred feet. So far, he has collected over five tons of plastic waste and hopes to reach six tons by his 65th birthday.

Paul also enjoys playing guitar, writing songs and poems, cooking, kayaking, and walking in nature.

Speaking Topics

Psychological safety & closed cultures in healthcare.

The £5 billion bottleneck in healthcare: the challenge of mental health patients accessing services.

Better informed better decisions: Triangulation of the “lived experiences” of both patients and employees connecting the board to the ward and vice versa.
