Panel Discussion: D&A Leaders Success Stories on Building a Data-Driven Culture EDT: 9:00 a.m. | BST: 14:00
The 2021 Gartner CDO Survey shows that organizations that deal with the human elements of data & analytics (D&A) are more successful than those that only consider technology. With a human focus, the mission of D&A is to foster broader data literacy and digital learning, rather than simply delivering core platforms, datasets and tools. Join this complimentary data & analytics webinar, where Distinguished Vice President Alan D. Duncan will interview a panel of your peers to share their experiences of delivering data literacy and data-driven change programs, and their successes and pitfalls.

This complimentary webinar looks at the four key focus areas and 20 accountabilities within those focus areas that will help CIOs and IT leaders rebalance their efforts, increase I&T’s impact on strategy execution and enterprise performance, and make their roles more valuable.
