Data Leadership Advisory

Leaders come to us when data is supposed to be driving the business.
And it is not.

The industry is the context. The problem is always the same. A leader responsible for data who needs it to perform and a team that needs direction to make that happen. We have solved this problem in pharma, CPG, healthcare, financial services, restaurants, and more.

Four situations. One firm that solves them.

Leaders come to us when...

Situation 01

You inherited a data team.

Nobody showed you how to run it. You are responsible for delivering results and you are not sure what to deliver, how, or to whom. Your team is busy. You cannot clearly explain what they are worth. Leadership is starting to question why the function exists.

"You don't need to know the code. You need to know the play."

We build the leadership framework to direct your team, communicate value upward, and deliver results without ever having to write a line of SQL. We show you what the job actually is and how to do it well.

Situation 02

You got promoted from the craft.

You were the best analyst in the room. Now you are expected to lead a function that requires completely different skills. The skills that made you exceptional as a practitioner are not the skills that make you exceptional as a leader. Most practitioners figure this out the hard way.

"You mastered data. Now master leading it."

We bridge the gap from doing to directing, from individual contributor to function builder, from practitioner to executive. This is the work that gets you to the next level and keeps you there.

Situation 03

You have data but no decisions.

The infrastructure exists. The dashboards get built. Leadership still does not trust the numbers or act on them. The gap between your team and the business is getting wider, not smaller. You are starting to wonder if the problem is the data or something else entirely.

"The data exists. The decisions don't. We fix that."

We diagnose exactly where trust broke down and rebuild the reporting infrastructure that connects data to decisions your leadership will actually make. It is something else entirely. And it is fixable.

Situation 04

You are being asked about AI.

Your executives want a strategy. Your team is not ready. Vendors are circling with demos and promises. You need a confident answer and a real plan, not another tool that creates more noise than signal and leaves you starting over in eighteen months.

"The tools will keep changing. Your edge doesn't have to."

We build your AI strategy from the ground up. What fits your business, what your team can execute, and how to sequence it so you are not rebuilding every time the landscape shifts.

What Leaders Say

Rower did not just build dashboards. They helped us design a commercial intelligence platform that connected sales, marketing, and commercial operations into one coherent experience. The result was a framework our teams could actually execute against, not just report from. That is a fundamentally different kind of partner.

Rashad Rahman
VP of Enterprise Data and Analytics, Azurity Pharmaceuticals

Before Rower, our commercial, marketing, and sales teams were each working from their own version of the data. Rower built us a reporting experience that connected sales, marketing, and commercial operations into one trusted view. We stopped debating the data and started making decisions with it. That is what commercial excellence actually looks like.

Nicole Hengst
Head of Business Intelligence, Specialty Pharma

Rower understands something most analytics firms miss. The gap between data science and commercial execution is not a technology problem, it is a thinking problem. Nasheed and his team bring the kind of strategic clarity that helps commercial leaders ask better questions and build systems that actually support how decisions get made.

Brooke Fleming
US Head of Omnichannel Marketing and Digital Enablement, UCB

Rower embedded analytics directly into our Six Sigma workflow, turning complex data into insights we could act on immediately. They cut through the noise, understood our process requirements, and delivered Tableau dashboards that didn’t just visualize data but enabled better outcomes. They made complexity simple and results measurable. I’d bring them in again without hesitation.

Brent Williams
VP of Transformation, McKesson

Rower is a fantastic partner for the Data & Analytics team at Roark Capital. We have leveraged their services on several analytics engagements and their results speak to the quality of their services. They are passionate about their work and spend the time understanding their client’s situational context to ensure they hit the mark. We are a strong proponent for the Rower team and look forward to strengthening the relationship in the future.

Brad Henderson
VP of Analytics, Roark Captial Group

Rower turns strategy into execution. They built menu level pricing dashboards that didn’t just display data but drove our pricing decisions at the site level. The detail and interactivity they delivered made it feel like commercial grade software, not a reporting tool. If you need analytics that actually change how decisions get made in your workflow, Rower delivers.

Gary Bales
Chief Marketing Officer, McAlister’s Deli

Recognize your situation in any of these?

Good. That means we have worked with someone exactly like you and we know what works. Start with one focused conversation. Leave with a clear diagnosis and a path forward.
