Data culture, and generally, any culture, depends on the mindset of the people.
Data culture involves moving data, changing working methods, democratizing information, making better decisions, changing work models, and collaborating.
In many companies, people aren’t working with data. Instead, they are working on data, and they need to get to a place where data is accessible, and people are instinctively working with it and making decisions with data in mind.
Culture is a crucial component of implementing a Data Strategy.
What makes people feel “data-capable?”
Trust, technology, and processes.
- Trust can be increased by promoting information and facilitating access to data training.
- The right technology is key to managing data. If resources are limited, there are inexpensive technologies that can be used to create solutions.
- Lastly, it’s crucial to have an efficient process, so everything flows when it comes to managing data.
