derodeff maneuver

Being completely out of commission, via hangover or other sickness, yet magically pulling yourself together to give a technical presentation to clients and management; leaving them to never know you are wanting to just die. This is followed by finding a soft place to die in peace.

I pulled off the DeRodeff Maneuver yesterday. No one in the meeting could tell that I was suffering a wicked stomach virus, and that I had just got done purging all internal organs before speaking.

dedomenaphobia

Based on the structure of the word (with "dedomena" referencing data in Greek and "phobia" meaning fear), irrational fear or aversion to data or data-driven processes. Individuals with dedomenaphobia might experience anxiety when confronted with large sets of information, data analysis, or the technologies associated with data management.

Anmut really helped me get over my dedomenaphobia by helping me understand the value and impact my data has on my organisation, how to make it fit for purpose, and the capabilities I need to stop being afraid of being more data-driven.
