Increasing Your Business Data and Analytics MaturityDATAVERSITY
For a few years now, companies of all sizes have been looking at data as a lever to increase revenues, reduce costs or improve efficiency. However, we believe the power of using data as a strategic asset is still in its early stages. One of the main reasons for that is business leaders still do not understand that the data & analytics maturity should be seen as a long time journey and an evolving enterprise learning. This webinar will present some key points on how data management leaders can succeed in their mission by sharing some practical experiences.
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

RWDG Slides: Build an Effective Data Governance FrameworkDATAVERSITY
Data Governance frameworks are used to structure the core components of a Data Governance program. Frameworks add significant value for those organizations getting started and improve or address missing components for programs already in place.
This month’s RWDG webinar with Bob Seiner will focus on dissecting a common Data Governance framework and customizing the framework to match the needs of your organization. Frameworks can be complex to describe but, in this case, the framework will become the self-describing face of your program.
In this webinar, Bob will share:
- A customizable Data Governance framework
- Five core components of a Data Governance framework
- Five perspectives for addressing each component
- Using a framework to select an approach to Data Governance
- Detailed descriptions of each component from each perspective

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
UN Capacity Mapping 2020: Innovation, Data and Digital CapabilitiesKersten Jauer
The annual UN System Innovation, Data and Digital Capacity Assessment is designed to foster improvements in strategy, organizational design, culture, policy and practice across the UN family. Now in its third year, the assessment surveys leaders in UN System entities on the strength of organizational ‘capabilities’ and ‘cultures’. The main output is a ‘map’ that shows entities in four quadrants: Those organizations who are ‘leading’, those with ‘gaps in capability’ or ‘culture’, and those ‘at risk’ of falling behind.
Designed by the Secretary-General's Strategic Planning Unit with support from the UN Innovation Network, UNICEF, UNDP and the Chief Executive Board Secretariat, the 2020 edition measured 80 detailed change attributes and received inputs from leaders in over 50 UN System entities.

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.
Targeting towards the health and human services communities, this presentation covers the importance of a data-driven culture, how to identify areas where data can be used to innovate and how to recognize the operational processes you must have in place to fully utilize your data.
Organizations across most industries make some attempt to utilize Data Management and Data Strategies. While most organizations have both concepts implemented, they must fully understand the difference to fully achieve their goals.
This webinar will cover three lessons, each illustrated with examples, that will help you distinguish the difference between Data Strategy and Data Management processes and communicate their value to both internal and external decision-makers:
Understanding the difference between Data Strategy and Data Management
Prioritizing organizational Data Management needs vs. Data Strategy needs
Discuss foundational Data Management and Data Strategy concepts based on “The DAMA Guide to the Data Management Body of Knowledge” (DAMA DMBOK)
The document discusses the importance of developing a data strategy before building a data warehouse. It defines a data strategy as a unified, organization-wide plan for using corporate data as a vital asset. The data strategy should address critical data issues like quality, metadata, performance, distribution, ownership, security and privacy. Developing a data strategy requires identifying strategic and operational decisions, aligning the strategy with business goals, and answering many questions across various data-related topics.

Data Strategy - Executive MBA Class, IE Business SchoolGam Dias
For today's enterprise Data is now very much a corporate asset, vital to delivering products and services efficiently and cost effectively. There are few organizations that can survive without harnessing data in some way.
Viewed as a strategic asset, data can be a source of new internal efficiencies, improved competitive advantage or a source of entirely new products that can be targeted at your existing or new customers.
This slide deck contains the highlights of a one day course on Data Strategy taught as part of the Executive MBA Program at IE Business School in Madrid.
Data Architecture - The Foundation for Enterprise Architecture and GovernanceDATAVERSITY
Organizations are faced with an increasingly complex data landscape, finding themselves unable to cope with exponentially increasing data volumes, compounded by additional regulatory requirements with increased fines for non-compliance. Enterprise architecture and data governance are often discussed at length, but often with different stakeholder audiences. This can result in complementary and sometimes conflicting initiatives rather than a focused, integrated approach. Data governance requires a solid data architecture foundation in order to support the pillars of enterprise architecture. In this session, IDERA’s Ron Huizenga will discuss a practical, integrated approach to effectively understand, define and implement an cohesive enterprise architecture and data governance discipline with integrated modeling and metadata management.
Most companies recognize the importance of data and Data Governance. Yet, many companies are failing in their efforts to become data-driven. Increasing investment in technology has not addressed the problem. In fact, the increasing complexity has made matters worse. In order to succeed, organizations must address the most difficult issue that is holding them back: cultural change and the human side of Data Governance.
In this session, Ron Huizenga will discuss human factors as the major impediment to business adoption, as well as how to address them.

Key challenges included integrating tools and developing an extensible information architecture to enable search and machine learning.
Keys to Creating an Analytics-Driven CultureDATAVERSITY
Changing company culture takes time, energy and focus, as well as consistent reinforcement long after the breakrooms’ company culture posters start to fade. Creating an analytics-driven culture may be even harder to grow and sustain. Yet the rewards are vast for companies whose culture embodies an analytics-first mindset – and for those who use the derived insights to improve operational efficiency and decision-making, generate new revenue and prevent risk and fraud.
This webinar will offer advice and real-world examples on how to:
Develop and utilize an analytics-focused vision statement
Engage senior leaders to support analytics as a business problem-solver
Communication best practices to engage participants in the culture change
Use tried-and-tested best practices and approaches to build an analytics-driven culture
Designing a Successful Governed Citizen Data Science StrategyDATAVERSITY
To compete in today’s digital economy, enterprises require new ways to expand AI across their entire organization. Nearly all firms want to do more with data science, but they don't know where to begin or how to properly empower citizen data scientists to avoid common AI gone wrong accidents.
In this session, we will discuss how to approach your journey into citizen data science with existing analytics talent. Proven best practices and lessons learned from successful early adopters of augmented data science will be shared. We will walk through example initiative roadmaps, recommended staffing, upskilling, mentoring and ongoing governance.

This document discusses security and governance considerations for big data. It notes that while many businesses use big data, they may not have sufficient access controls or security practices in place. Big data breaches can be large, making security critical. It then outlines some risks like insufficiently hardened systems, uncontrolled access, and unfulfilled regulatory requirements. The document introduces GOSEC as a centralized security component that manages access control across big data services like HDFS and applications. GOSEC allows setting access policies for users and groups for resources like files and topics. It covers authentication, authorization, and auditing.

Enterprise architecture and data governance are often discussed at length, but often with different stakeholder audiences. This can result in complementary and sometimes conflicting initiatives rather than a focused, integrated approach. Data governance requires a solid data architecture foundation in order to support the pillars of enterprise architecture. In this session, IDERA’s Ron Huizenga will discuss a practical, integrated approach to effectively understand, define and implement an cohesive enterprise architecture and data governance discipline with integrated modeling and metadata management.
Most companies recognize the importance of data and Data Governance. Yet, many companies are failing in their efforts to become data-driven. Increasing investment in technology has not addressed the problem. In fact, the increasing complexity has made matters worse. In order to succeed, organizations must address the most difficult issue that is holding them back: cultural change and the human side of Data Governance.
In this session, Ron Huizenga will discuss human factors as the major impediment to business adoption, as well as how to address them.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
