In 2003 Alexander left finance to join the SCL Group as a Director, where his responsibilities included growing SCL internationally, together with opening new markets for SCL’s many behavioural products and services.

Over the past nine years, Alexander has worked on more than 40 political campaigns in the US,Caribbean, South America, Europe, Africa and Asia. The data science used in political elections is no different from data science and interpretations in the public sector. The difference is how that data is interpreted. What was missed by experienced pollsters in the presidential election is precisely what many companies may be missing when targeting their products for various audiences.[/expand]
Alexander highlights the technical aspects of their targeting strategies, psychographics and how they mesh research on behaviour and psychology with data modelling and analytics to create ‘a workable model of persuasion’ to effectively reach their target groups.[/expand]
