MIT SMR READS

Tackling Challenges With Data Governance • Akira Bell is senior vice president and CIO at Mathematica, a research and data analytics consultancy. Bell was a finalist for this year’s MIT Sloan CIO Leadership Award in recognition of her work at Mathematica to spearhead the launch of the data collaboration platform Mquiry, a turnkey system for onboarding and working with clients’ data securely. MIT Sloan Management Review spoke with Bell to understand her role and how leaders should be thinking about their data. This interview has been edited for clarity and length.

The Chevron Doctrine Is Dead. What Are the Implications for Business? • A recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling gives companies more opportunities to challenge regulations, but they may face more regulatory uncertainty as well.

Beating ‘Not Invented Here’ Syndrome • Resistance to external ideas hinders innovation. The right incentives can open minds.
