I gave an example of a 2021 survey which found that 63% of data center managers thought “there is no business justification for collecting water usage data.”Yes, thought there are laws coming from the EU that should change that attitude.Creators & Guests Gerry Scullion - Host Stef Murphy - Producer ________________________BRING THIS IS HCD INTO YOUR ORGANISATION→ Train my organisation https://www.thisishcd.com/training→ Video Courses https://www.thisishcd.com/courses→ Private Community (Coaching, Courses, WhatsApp) https://www.thisishcd.com/circle-community→ Gerry's consultancy (Service Design and Design Research) https://humana.design/________________________BECOME A DIRECTORY MEMBER (IT'S FREE!) and get all of this → FREE Introduction to Journey Management course with Marc Stickdorn & Gerry Scullionhttps://www.thisishcd.com/learning/introduction-to-journey-management→ Discover & Connect with others https://www.thisishcd.com/directory → Claim partner discounts https://www.thisishcd.com/partners → Submit an Article https://www.thisishcd.com/blog+ Coming soon - JOB BOARD, FIND A MENTOR...and more________________________
