Accountability has a name

Accountability has a name.

Most consultancies are designed so that no individual is ever accountable for an outcome. The partner who sold it moved on. The team that built it rolled off. We built Inference Group the other way up.

Richard’s name is on every engagement, every article, and every claim this company makes in public. If something we shipped doesn’t work, you know who to call, and he’ll pick up.

Every article Inference Group publishes carries Richard’s name because it carries his thinking. He stands behind every word. He also hosts the Under The Inference podcast, and speaks at The AI Summit and DataIQ.
