Presented by John Ladley • Data Governance Author & EIM Leader
The new topic of the year is data literacy. In this session, you will learn how to use education to increase data literacy at all levels to reduce the mismanagement of data. Topics that will be covered include:
- Fundamentals of data – leadership, management, and all areas of organizations need to accept that they need to understand some new things. No one is data literate.
- Acting accordingly – where are we not acting correctly and how do we fix it.
- What do I need to do – this starts with the individual.
From there, John will offer some practical steps to acquire true engagement and data literacy in the process.
