Data Analytics Chat
Humans and Data Strategy
In this episode of Data Analytics Chat, we discuss the complex interplay between data strategy and human elements.
This conversation discusses critical aspects of the guest's five Cs framework (competence, collaboration, communication, creativity, and conscience) and the importance of empathy, communication, and leadership in successful data-driven transformations.
We advise on overcoming resistance to change, fostering a data-centric culture, and the relevance of continuous training and development in implementing effective data strategies.
