Adopting a data culture - beyond the buzzwords

This talk will be online only via Zoom. Anyone who sets themselves to "attending" will get details of how to dial in closer to the time. Any questions please get in touch.

About the Talk

In this session Chris Love will walk through his observations on why data initiatives often fail and why, increasingly, he sees "data culture" as being a key factor in the success of such initiatives.

Drawing on his practical experience working with organisations across a range of sectors Chris will discuss what it means to have a successful data culture and why you should care about it. His talk will focus on five areas of a data culture: Trust, Talent, Sharing, Commitment and Mindset, and share tips and advice on what works and what to avoid.
