It’s been three years since the General Data Protection Regulation shook up how organizations manage data security and privacy, ushering in a new focus on Data Governance. But what is the state of Data Governance today?
How has it evolved? What’s its role now? Building on prior research, erwin by Quest and ESG have partnered on a new study about what’s driving the practice of Data Governance, program maturity and current challenges. It also examines the connections to data operations and data protection, which is interesting given the fact that improving data security is now the No. 1 driver of Data Governance, according to this year’s survey respondents.

Other primary drivers for enterprise Data Governance programs
Most common bottlenecks to program maturity and sustainability
Advantages of aligning Data Governance with the other data disciplines
In a post-COVID world, data has the power to be even more transformative, and 84% of business and technology professionals say it represents the best opportunity to develop a competitive advantage during the next 12 to 24 months. Let’s make sure your organization has the intelligence it needs about both data and data systems to empower stakeholders in the front and back office to do what they need to do.
Mario Faria presents on helping HR professionals understand big data. He discusses the current situation of data fragmentation and complexity in organizations. Some common problems are lack of data ownership and governance. Hiring data professionals is challenging due to the variety of roles and skills required. The solution is to establish a chief data officer role to manage the people, processes, technology and methodology for a successful data and analytics program. HR and business leaders need to work together to attract and retain top data talent to help their organizations leverage data as a strategic asset.
DataEd Slides: Data Governance StrategiesDATAVERSITY
Much like project management and home improvements, Data Governance sounds a lot simpler than it actually is. In a nutshell, Data Governance can be explained as “managing data with guidance.” In general, the perceived utility of these programs increases with the specificity of desired data and processing improvements. Whether restarting or starting your Data Governance programs, it is critical to be guided by a periodically revised Data Strategy that links support for organizational strategy to specific operational data improvements. Understanding these and other aspects of governance is necessary to eliminate the ambiguity that often surrounds the implementation of effective Data Management and stewardship programs.
This webinar will:
- Illustrate what Data Governance functions are required for effective Data Management, how they fit with other Data Management practice areas, and why Data Governance has been tricky for many organizations
- Illustrate the utility of a detailed focus and set of narratives to facilitate understanding of your business objectives and imperatives that demand governance
- Provide direction for selling Data Governance to organizational management as a specifically motivated initiative.
Learning Objectives:
- Reorient the focus of Data Governance to an improvable process
- Recognize guiding principles and lessons learned
- Understand foundational Data Governance concepts based on the DAMA DMBOK
How to Implement Data Governance Best PracticeDATAVERSITY
This document provides an overview of a webinar on implementing data governance best practices. It discusses defining data governance best practices and assessing an organization's current practices against those best practices. Examples of best practices from different industries are provided. The document emphasizes communicating best practices in a non-threatening way and building best practices into daily operations. Key aspects covered include criteria for determining best practices, messages to convey to management, and best practices related to creating a best practices document.
Data Governance and Metadata ManagementDATAVERSITY
Metadata is a tool that improves data understanding, builds end-user confidence, and improves the return on investment in every asset associated with becoming a data-centric organization. Metadata’s use has expanded beyond “data about data” to cover every phase of data analytics, protection, and quality improvement. Data Governance and metadata are connected at the hip in every way possible. As the song goes, “You can’t have one without the other.”
In this RWDG webinar, Bob Seiner will provide a way to renew your energy by focusing on the valuable asset that can make or break your Data Governance program’s success. The truth is metadata is already inherent in your data environment, and it can be leveraged by making it available to all levels of the organization. At issue is finding the most appropriate ways to leverage and share metadata to improve data value and protection.
Throughout this webinar, Bob will share information about:
- Delivering an improved definition of metadata
- Communicating the relationship between successful governance and metadata
- Getting your business community to embrace the need for metadata
- Determining the metadata that will provide the most bang for your bucks
- The importance of Metadata Management to becoming data-centric
Data Governance Roles as the Backbone of Your ProgramDATAVERSITY
The method you follow to form your Data Governance roles and responsibilities will impact the success of your program. There are industry-standard roles that require adjustment to fit the culture of your organization when getting started, gaining acceptance, and demonstrating sustained value. Roles are the backbone of a productive Data Governance program.
Bob Seiner will share his updated operating model of roles and responsibilities in this topical RWDG webinar. The model Bob uses is meant to overlay your present organizational structure rather than requiring you to try and plug your organization into someone else’s model. This webinar will provide everything you need to know about Data Governance roles.
Bob will address the following in this webinar:
• An operating model of Data Governance roles and responsibilities
• How to customize the model to mimic your existing structure
• The meaning behind the oft-used “roles pyramid”
• Detailed responsibilities at each level of the organization
• Using the model to influence Data Governance acceptance
The document discusses the role of a Chief Data Officer in establishing a data governance structure and data quality management program. It notes that currently, data ownership and management is fragmented across different departments with no single party responsible. A CDO would create rules and policies for data governance, establish a data quality team, and ensure standards and accountability for high quality data as a strategic asset. This would help address issues like high costs of poor data quality and system failures due to bad data.

Most Common Data Governance Challenges in the Digital EconomyRobyn Bollhorst
Todays’ increasing emphasis on differentiation in the digital economy further complicates the data governance challenge. Learn about today’s common challenges and about the new adaptations that are required to support the digital era. Avoid the pitfalls and follow along on Johnson & Johnson’s journey to:
- Establish and scale a best in class enterprise data governance program
- Identify and focus on the most critical data and information to bolster incremental wins and garner executive support
- Ensure readiness for automation with SAP MDG on HANA
Data Insights and Analytics Webinar: CDO vs. CAO - What’s the Difference?DATAVERSITY
At one time, there were well-stated distinctions between the Chief Data Officer and Chief Analytics Officer roles. But not today. In some organizations, this role confusion actually causes serious concerns.
John and Kelle will revisit the definitions, suggest where lack of clarity first began, and discuss how best to manage the role distinctions going forward.
This webinar will address:
Differences in the CAO and CDO roles
CDOs who aren’t responsible for all organizational data
Why role clarity matters
Organizational success without one or both roles
Data Governance Strategies - With Great Power Comes Great AccountabilityDATAVERSITY
Much like project team management and home improvement, data governance sounds a lot simpler than it actually is. In a nutshell, data governance is the process by which an organization delegates responsibility and exercises control over mission-critical data assets. In practice, though, data governance directs how all other data management functions are performed, meaning that much of your data management strategy’s capacity to function at all depends on your effectiveness in governing its implementation. Understanding these aspects of governance is necessary to eliminate the ambiguity that often surrounds effective data management and stewardship programs, since the goal of governance is to manage the data that supports organizational strategy.
This webinar will:
-Illustrate what data governance functions are required for effective data management, how they fit with other data management disciplines, and why data governance can be tricky for many organizations
-Help you develop a detailed vocabulary and set of narratives to facilitate understanding of your business objectives and imperatives that demand governance
-Provide direction for selling data governance to organizational management as a specifically motivated initiative
The document discusses why 87% of data science projects fail to make it into production. It identifies three main reasons for failure: data is inaccurate, siloed and slow; there is a lack of business readiness; and operationalization is unreachable. To address these issues, the document recommends establishing data governance, defining an organizational data science strategy and use cases, ensuring the technology stack is updated, and having data scientists collaborate with data engineers. It also provides tips for successful data science projects, such as having short timelines, small focused teams, and prioritizing business problems over solutions.
RWDG Webinar: Achieving Data Quality Through Data GovernanceDATAVERSITY
Data quality requires sustained discipline around the management of data definition and production. Data Governance is a large part of that discipline. The relationship between how well data is governed and the quality of the data is obvious. You cannot have high quality data without active Data Governance.
This month’s Real-World Data Governance webinar with Bob Seiner addresses how to improve data quality through the application of Data Governance practices. Quality starts with a plan and requires formal execution and enforcement of authority over the data. Attend this webinar and take away a plan to achieve data quality through Data Governance.
In this webinar, Bob will discuss:
• How Data Governance leads to data quality
• Core principles of Data Governance and data quality success
• Quality metrics based on governance practices
• Relationship between quality and governance roles
• Steps to achieve quality through governance
Real-World Data Governance: Managing Governance Metadata for Mass ConsumptionDATAVERSITY
Metadata is a byproduct of a successful data governance program. More often than not, the success of a data governance program depends on the ability to record, validate and share metadata that is produced while implementing a data governance program. Metadata provides more than just the meaning of the data, the lineage of the data, and the rules associated with consuming the data. Governance metadata includes the people aspect of the data, who owns it (if you use that term), who stewards it, and who defines, produces and uses the data across the organization as well as other things.
Enterprise Data World Webinar: A Strategic Approach to Data Quality DATAVERSITY
We will also explore how to apply the 12 Directives, through a set of tactics to help you assess organizational readiness for data quality strategy. The purpose of such an assessment is to surface priorities for strategic action and to formulate a long-term approach to an organization’s data quality improvement.
Sallie Mae has implemented an extensive data governance program to manage its large volumes of customer and financial data. The program began in 2006 with an enterprise data definition project and pilot data governance initiative. It has since expanded to include a data governance council, office, and quality team. The program aims to standardize data, ensure quality, and support compliance. Regular communication and metrics are used to demonstrate the program's business benefits, such as increased revenue and reduced costs.
Real-World Data Governance: Agile Data Governance - The Truth Be ToldDATAVERSITY
The concepts of Agile Software Development have been applied in many ways in many organizations with differing levels of success. We should not be surprised that Agile is being used in terms of Data Governance. This application calls into question some of the key concepts of being Agile and Governing Data that are well worth discussing.
Join Bob Seiner and a Special Guest in this installment of the Real-World Data Governance webinar series to explore the idea of staying Agile in our Data Governance efforts and how to Govern Agile efforts. The subject of Agile always seems to spark interest from skeptics and believers alike. All viewpoints will be considered.
This session will cover:
The Agile Manifesto
The value of staying Agile
What is meant by Agile Data Governance
Applying Governance to Agile efforts
Comparison with Other Methods of Governance

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Becoming a data-driven organization is something many companies aspire to, but few are able to obtain. Let’s face it: Data is confusing. It is complicated, dirty, and spread out all over a business. While companies are making big investments in Data Management projects, only a few are seeing the payoff. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>New research from Experian shows that despite many ongoing data initiatives, 69 percent of organizations struggle to be data-driven. The struggles are real. Companies face a large data debt, look at data projects through a siloed lens, and still have a large volume of inaccurate data. In fact, 65 percent report inaccurate data is undermining key initiatives. <br></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>However, the tide is turning. Businesses are starting to adopt data enablement, or a practice of empowering a larger group of individuals within the business to understand and harness the power of data and analytics. Companies that empower wider data usage are better able to comply with regulations, improve decision-making, and, of course, deliver a superior customer experience. Are these the results you’re striving for? </p>

How to Strengthen Enterprise Data Governance with Data QualityDATAVERSITY
If your organization is in a highly-regulated industry – or relies on data for competitive advantage – data governance is undoubtedly a top priority. Whether you’re focused on “defensive” data governance (supporting regulatory compliance and risk management) or “offensive” data governance (extracting the maximum value from your data assets, and minimizing the cost of bad data), data quality plays a critical role in ensuring success.
Join our webinar to learn how enterprise data quality drives stronger data governance, including:
The overlaps between data governance and data quality
The “data” dependencies of data governance – and how data quality addresses them
Key considerations for deploying data quality for data governance

Real-World Data Governance: Metadata & Data GovernanceDATAVERSITY
This document describes an upcoming webinar on real-world data governance. The webinar will discuss the relationship between metadata and data governance, with metadata seen as both a natural byproduct of an effective data governance program and something that must itself be governed. The webinar will also cover how to leverage this relationship to improve data management and view metadata and data governance as complementary. Additional webinars on related topics are scheduled for August through December.
This document provides an overview of best practices in metadata management. It discusses what metadata is, why it is important, and how it adds context and definition to data. Metadata management is part of an overall data strategy.

Metadata provides more than just the meaning of the data, the lineage of the data, and the rules associated with consuming the data. Governance metadata includes the people aspect of the data, who owns it (if you use that term), who stewards it, and who defines, produces and uses the data across the organization as well as other things.

<p>Becoming a data-driven organization is something many companies aspire to, but few are able to obtain. Let’s face it: Data is confusing. It is complicated, dirty, and spread out all over a business. While companies are making big investments in Data Management projects, only a few are seeing the payoff. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>New research from Experian shows that despite many ongoing data initiatives, 69 percent of organizations struggle to be data-driven. The struggles are real. Companies face a large data debt, look at data projects through a siloed lens, and still have a large volume of inaccurate data. In fact, 65 percent report inaccurate data is undermining key initiatives. <br></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>However, the tide is turning. Businesses are starting to adopt data enablement, or a practice of empowering a larger group of individuals within the business to understand and harness the power of data and analytics. Companies that empower wider data usage are better able to comply with regulations, improve decision-making, and, of course, deliver a superior customer experience. Are these the results you’re striving for? </p>

Creating a Data-Driven Organization (Data Day Seattle 2015)Carl Anderson
Creating a Data-Driven Organization
The document discusses how to create a data-driven organization. It argues that being data-driven requires having strong analytics, a data-focused culture, and using data to drive impact and business results. Some key aspects of a data-driven culture discussed are having a testing mindset, open data sharing, self-service analytics access for business units, broad data literacy, and visible data leadership. The presentation provides examples of actions organizations can take to promote a data-driven culture, such as improving analyst competencies and linking metrics to strategic goals. It cautions that becoming complacent once progress is made can undermine data-driven efforts, as demonstrated by Tesco's experience.
How organizations can become data-driven: three main rulesAndrea Gigli
The presentation shows how organization can successfully become data driven and avoid wasting time and money. It explain how to prioritize business questtions, how to combine properly people, tech&data and processes, and how to structure a transforamtional journey for becoming a data driven.
WhoKnows People Data Analytics for Human ResourcesJoanne Hernon
This document discusses how machine learning and people data analytics can help companies make better HR decisions. It explains that people analytics has traditionally relied on limited manually entered data, but new technologies allow companies to analyze more employee data from multiple sources. Machine learning and analyzing employee skills, relationships, and expertise across an organization can provide insights into talent gaps, team positioning, retention strategies, and strategic planning. The document promotes a people analytics platform called WhoKnows that helps companies leverage these techniques to realize the full potential of their employee talent and knowledge.
Do you have a holistic data strategy .pdfssuser926bc61
The document provides a six-step framework for creating a data-driven organization. The first step is to understand business objectives and identify compelling use cases for using data. The second step is to assess the current data state by examining what data exists and what is needed. The third step is to map out a data strategy by defining the target state, and how application modernization can optimize the strategy. The fourth step is to establish controls by outlining a data governance policy and mapping real-world scenarios. The framework provides guidance to data leaders on designing and implementing an effective data strategy.
Data Governance, the foundation for building a succesful data managementTentive Solutions
This Whitepaper clearly explains how the Data Governance function plays a key role and which factors are of great importance in successful data management. Also available in Dutch.
The document discusses how companies can better utilize data and analytics to support decision making rather than focusing primarily on acquiring more data. It argues that most companies do not effectively use the data they already have. To leverage data, companies need to adopt evidence-based decision making as a cultural shift. This involves establishing single data sources, providing real-time feedback to decision makers, explicitly defining and updating business rules based on facts, and coaching employees who make regular decisions. Empowering employees to make decisions based on data analysis, like at Seven-Eleven Japan, can provide competitive advantages if companies learn to effectively capture, analyze, and act on data.
The document discusses nurturing a data-driven culture in organizations. It notes that while many businesses say they want to be more data-driven, actually making the transition can be challenging. A data-driven culture means putting data and insights into the hands of front-line staff across the organization to power fact-based decisions. The document outlines several challenges to creating a successful data-driven culture, such as examining infrastructure to support effective data use, ensuring buy-in and commitment, fostering professional development, leading by example, establishing regular data meetings, and removing barriers to expansion.
This document provides information on data governance and discusses several challenges and approaches to data governance. It discusses that 80% of enterprise data is unstructured and spread across many sources like web data, enterprise applications, emails, and social media. Governing such diverse data assets is a complex long-term journey. It also discusses why data governance is needed, challenges of data governance, and different routes and frameworks to conduct data governance assessments and develop solutions. These include using cases studies, lean six sigma methodology, enterprise data architecture approaches, and linking data governance with machine learning. The document concludes by emphasizing structure of data, experimenting with different assessment and solutioning methods, and leveraging machine learning as a new capability.

The survey found that:
- Nearly all big data leaders are optimistic their companies are leveraging big data efficiently by dedicating new talent and tools to big data initiatives and gaining internal alignment on its use.
- However, only about half say big data is extensively leveraged across all business units, and challenges include "shadow analytics", too much time spent gathering rather than analyzing data, and reliance on manual methods.
- Companies need better tools, more centralized talent, and greater understanding of big data's value to fully leverage it. While most leaders make sufficient efforts, some say their companies are not doing enough.
The document provides findings from a survey of 150 data leaders about leveraging big data at their companies. Key findings include:
- Nearly all respondents believe their company is headed in the right direction with big data due to investments in new talent, technologies, and alignment on usage. However, only about half say big data is extensively leveraged across all business units currently.
- Respondents face challenges like data silos, legacy storage systems, and a lack of standardized measurement for big data initiatives. Finding skilled analytics talent is also difficult.
- Resources needed for success vary but include better tools, centralized talent management, and more information on the business value of big data.
Data Governance — Aligning Technical and Business ApproachesDATAVERSITY
Data Governance can have a varied definition, depending on the audience. To many, data governance consists of committee meetings and stewardship roles. To others, it focuses on technical data management and controls. Holistic data governance combines both of these aspects, and a robust data architecture and associated diagrams can be the “glue” that binds business and IT governance together. Join this webinar for practical tips and hands-on exercises for aligning data architecture & data governance for business and IT success.

Expert Panel: Overcoming Challenges with Distributed Data to Maximize Busines...Denodo
Watch full webinar here: https://buff.ly/3wdI1il
As organizations compete in new markets and new channels, business data requirements include new data platforms and applications. Migration to the cloud typically adds more distributed data when operations set up their own data platforms. This spreads important data across on-premises and cloud-based data platforms. As a result, data silos proliferate and become difficult to access, integrate, manage, and govern. Many organizations are using cloud data platforms to consolidate data, but distributed environments are unlikely to go away.
Organizations need holistic data strategies for unifying distributed data environments to improve data access and data governance, optimize costs and performance, and take advantage of modern technologies as they arrive. This TDWI Expert Panel will focus on overcoming challenges with distributed data to maximize business value.
Key topics this panel will address include:
- Developing the right strategy for your use cases and workloads in distributed data environments, such as data fabrics, data virtualization, and data mesh

Do People Really Know Their Fertility Intentions? Correspondence between Sel...Xiao Xu
Fertility intention data from surveys often serve as a crucial component in modeling fertility behaviors. Yet, the persistent gap between stated intentions and actual fertility decisions, coupled with the prevalence of uncertain responses, has cast doubt on the overall utility of intentions and sparked controversies about their nature. In this study, we use survey data from a representative sample of Dutch women. With the help of open-ended questions (OEQs) on fertility and Natural Language Processing (NLP) methods, we are able to conduct an in-depth analysis of fertility narratives. Specifically, we annotate the (expert) perceived fertility intentions of respondents and compare them to their self-reported intentions from the survey. Through this analysis, we aim to reveal the disparities between self-reported intentions and the narratives. Furthermore, by applying neural topic modeling methods, we could uncover which topics and characteristics are more prevalent among respondents who exhibit a significant discrepancy between their stated intentions and their probable future behavior, as reflected in their narratives.

• 10 Steps to Develop and Foster a Data
Literate Workforce
• Q & A
AGENDA
6. 6
Data-literate companies that are successfully
navigating this gap are already disrupting
industries, fundamentally changing expectations
and service levels.
What is Data Literacy?
Data literacy is the ability to read, work with, analyze, and argue
with data. Much like literacy as a general concept, data literacy
focuses on the competencies involved in working with data.
8. Learning to speak data? Here is what we learn at each step:
8
Reading Data
The organization has a limited amount of data
literacy established across the enterprise. It
may exist in certain departments but not
across the organization. The organization has
made limited investments in data literacy.
o Understanding Data Literacy Building Blocks
o Developing a Foundation of Data
o Questioning the Quality of Data
Writing Data
The organization is working to establish and
educate the organization on data literacy.
Education is a priority for every employee,
from data-focused departments to front-line
employees. The organization is actively
investing in data literacy and hiring
accordingly.
o Conducting Data Analysis
o Presenting with Data
o Telling the Story with Data
Speaking Data
The organization is data-literate and has
prioritized its data as a core asset. All
employees recognize the value of data. The
organization is investing to further the reach
of data literacy with leading-edge technologies
(e.g. AI/ML).
o Evaluating Data Ethics
o Making Decisions with Data
o Tracking Progress with Data
1 32
9. Human Progress and Literacy
9
Throughout history, the literate people of their time have always led.
Literacy is the road to human progress and the means through which every man,
woman, and child can realize his or her full potential.
10. Key Findings
10
Enterprise-wide data literacy is low.
24% of business decision makers surveyed
are fully confident in their ability to read,
work with, analyze, and argue with data.
Future employees are underprepared for
data-driven workplaces.
21% of 16- to 24-year-olds are data-literate,
suggesting schools and universities are failing
to ensure students have the skills they need to
enter the working world.
Data is key for professional credibility.
94% of respondents using data in their
current roles agree data helps them do their
jobs better, and 82% believe greater data
literacy would give them more credibility in
the workplace.
Senior leaders do not display confidence.
32% of the C-suite is viewed as data-literate,
potentially holding senior leaders back from
encouraging their workforces to use data to
their advantage.
Organizations are losing competitive
advantage because data literacy drives
higher enterprise performance.
85% of data-literate people say they are
performing very well at work, compared
to 54% of the wider workforce.
There is an appetite to learn.
78% of business decision makers said they
would be willing to invest more time and
energy into improving their data skillsets.

11. Companies that use data to establish their business models
have 3 distinct advantages over established companies:
11
High-Quality Data Collection
Each process and interaction is evaluated
through a “can-I-track-this” lens followed by a
“how-can-I-scale-this” discussion. This
requires a strong foundation of underlying
data to be captured at every step.
Established companies often have legacy
processes with limited and disparate data
collection from which the data might be of
questionable quality.
Strong Data-literate Workforce
Knowing how to work with data is the
“minimum height to ride” at a data-literate
company. These companies hire strong data
practitioners who, through an increasing focus
on data, have been able to monetize their data
assets.
Established companies need employees who
can maintain their existing non-data based
processes, so they hire differently. Developing
data literacy is typically not a priority for them
and is reflected in their workforce.
Agility as a Mindset
The culture at these companies is focused on
their abilities to bring products to market
quickly, move critical decision making to front-
line managers, promote innovative thinking,
foster competitive drive, and rapidly evaluate
progress based on data.
Established companies work hard to adopt
these traits on small teams but struggle to
scale them throughout the organization,
where employees prefer to operate as-is.
12. The data practices that differentiated high performers from
others involved data leadership in the C-suite, broadly
accessible data, and a culture that tolerates failure.
1. Out of 10 practices that were presented as answer choices. For respondents at high-performing organizations, n = 170; for all other respondents, n = 405.
2. Respondents who said their organizations (a) have had an average annual organic growth rate of 10% or more over past 3 years and (b) have had an
average annual growth rate in earnings before interest and taxes of 10% or more over past 3 years.

prisoners to what made them
successful – their static processes and
hierarchical controls.

The 10 Steps to Fostering a
Data-Literate Workforce
15. 01Data Pride Data Platform Data Prowess
This refers to how much the organization
recognizes and values data. We can determine
this by asking the following questions:
o Does your organization inherently
value data?
o What is the organization’s sentiment
about data?
o Does your entire organization value
data as an asset?
o Is every process and interaction viewed
as a source of valuable data?
o Does the organization push for
automated data collection where possible?
o Do front-line workers recognize the
value of collecting high-quality data?
This refers to how much of the organization’s
data is easily accessible in a highly useable
format. We can determine this by asking the
following questions:
o Does your organization make its data
easily available in a high-quality format?
o Are business and technology working
together to open up the data?
o Does the organization host the data in an
easy-to-access manner?
o Does the organization invest in breaking
down data silos?
o Does the organization certify a set of the
overall data across the enterprise?
o Does the organization invest in data
standards?
o Does the organization offer a set of
enterprise tools to provide the data to
employees?
o Does the organization invest in
collaborative uses of data?
This refers to how much the organization
knows about working effectively with
data. We can determine this by asking the
following questions:
o Does your organization understand and
know how to work with data?
o Are the organization’s employees data
savvy?
o Does the organization know how to convert
business questions into data questions?
o Does the organization understand how to
interpret and analyze data?
o Does the organization understand how to
communicate with data?
o Is the organization using artificial
intelligence, machine learning, and data
science?
Assess Data Literacy Status

02Develop a Data Literacy Strategy
Distinguish where you are from where you want to be
Set the “baseline” from your assessment, identify your goals,
and incorporate continuous improvement after that.
01
02
03
04
05
Create an actionable plan for how to get there
Include all necessary tasks, develop interim steps, identify
dependencies and roadblocks, and customize for your
organization.
Align around the strategic value of data and the role data
literacy plays
This is where the organization must buy into a cultural shift
and recognize what it means to be a data-driven company.
Gather the necessary resources
Strategy success depends on ensuring you have the right
resources with the right skills, empowered in the right way
with the right enterprise reach. Remember, data literacy is not
an IT driven project – that’s the wrong mindset.
Ensure the plan is achievable and executable
Review goals and tactics, take a leadership approach to make
things happens, be a proponent of change, and above all –
do data dailySM.
Once you have completed your data
literacy assessment and understand your
company’s data literacy status, you can
begin to develop a comprehensive data
literacy strategy.
Each strategy will be unique to a
company’s data literacy status and needs,
but the process for development is similar
and typically requires the following
actions:

Emphasize the importance of reading, writing,
and speaking data in a business setting
Allow employees to practice with data

Communicate the availability of enterprise
data assets
If you aren’t sure where to start, reference The
Data Literacy Project. This site is supported by
data analytics leader Qlik and features courses
that cover data fundamentals, foundational
analytics, data-informed decision making, and
advanced analytics.
Building a foundation of data literacy in an
organization requires an investment not
only in technology, but in education as
well. Employees should be trained to
understand data concepts, work with data,
and make accurate decisions based on
data.
To build your data literacy foundation, you
should consider setting up a Data
University or similar function within the
enterprise data organization that will:
20. o Build and practice the data literacy concepts. Discuss different types of data,
how to differentiate them, and how to “speak” data in a business setting.
o Make the curriculum a mix of theoretical concept and practical application.
Challenge students to apply what they learn to their daily activities.
o Make it interesting. Incorporate games for competition or integrate storytelling
activities to discuss how people used data to drive business differently.
o Create a tailored experience. Customize the material for different audiences,
their roles, their learning styles, their needs, and the tools they use.
o Develop a mentoring program. Start a “buddy system” to help those who might
be struggling with data concepts.
o Tie coursework into career paths, performance reviews, and incentive structures.
This will ensure more widespread participation across the organization.
06Develop a Customized Data Literacy Curriculum
21. 07Use Data in Decision Making
Convert the business decision to a data question
Evaluate how to bring insights rather than instinct to the business
decision. Evaluate data points that would help inform the decision one
way or the other.
01
02
03
04
05
Collect the data from trusted sources
Identify the underlying data that will be needed and obtain the data
from trusted data sources. That means two things: understanding
the context of the source data and assessing the quality of the data.
Consider the analysis options available
Evaluate the options for how to work with this data, what analytic
techniques and models might be available for use, and how to conduct
the needed analysis. Peel back the layers as you approach the problem
from different angles to prove or disprove your decision. Leverage
defined Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) where available.
Communicate the decision clearly
Utilize storytelling with data techniques to communicate your decision.
Recognize that stakeholders might need varying levels of
communication. Be clear about your deliberation and decision.
Conduct retrospective reviews
Collect new data points and as time goes by to evaluate your decision.
Recognize that no decision is bulletproof and in hindsight certain
decisions might have been made differently. Learn and adjust.
Organizations should think of business
problems in data terms: collect the
required data from trusted sources,
understand how to analyze data, learn how
to communicate the decision based on the
data, and analyze new data to evaluate the
decision.
To do this, organizations should leverage
the following framework to increase
critical thinking and move decision-making
from instinct-driven to insight-driven.

Big data governance requires special attention, as this
data may move from one setting to another. A
portion of this data might be used in a laboratory
before moving to a factory. The data will need
definitions and a defined process as it moves to the
factory setting and is used for production.
Provide Access to Data
23. o They include metrics to highlight their accomplishments on their resumes.
o They can explain how to convert business questions to data questions.
o They can talk about and demonstrate their data handling skills.
o They can describe the use of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
o They can describe data problems they have solved.
o They can describe challenges that typically exist with dirty data.
09Hire Data Savvy Employees
Here are a few ways for an HR department to identify
data-savvy recruits:
24. 24
Meetings
Set the tone at the start of the meeting by walking through an
agenda and explaining the goal of the meeting. During the
meeting, remind everyone to leverage data-based decision
making where possible. When closing the meeting, check if
the goals were accomplished. By doing this daily across the
organization, the culture will begin to shift.
01
02
03
Company Communications
As the organization highlights insights based on data in regular
company communications, the role and prominence of data
increases. The organization can leverage data-driven
storytelling techniques to communicate the importance of
data to front-line employees or enhance products and service
offerings.
Dashboards and Reports
Track and use metrics to stay focused on achieving goals.
Organizations that use dashboards and reports find there is an
increased awareness around the collection and use of data.
However, it is important to share metrics strategically,
considering how you can use these dashboards to positively
impact behavior.
10Integrate Data into Daily Activities
These activities help
embed data into the
DNA of a company
and start making data
the native language
by which employees
communicate
effectively.

The best way to learn a new language is through immersion and learning to speak data is no different. As you
build your foundational knowledge of data elements, it’s important to practice new and old skills every day.
Through repetition, you move from comprehension to data analysis and decision making. This process is most
successful when those learnings are paired with experts who can offer tricks, insights, and lessons learned.
To accomplish this, we recommend organizations DO DATA DAILYSM .
