Regular readers of my posts will know that I’m a big advocate of the Chief Data Officer (CDO) role. Also sometimes referred to as the Chief Data and Analytics Officer (CDAO), establishing this role and getting it woven into the organisational fabric doesn’t happen without challenges.
Previously, I discussed what data waste is and what could likely cause it within an organisation. In the blog, I compared data waste to a box of unused clothes lying rotting up in the attic and the unwanted perils it may cause. In this second blog, the focus turns to how to best deal with …
In sticking with the theme of data governance, where my previous post stressed the importance of producing quality data to reap the benefits of the many tech trends around today – I wanted to use this post to share some practical insights on how information governance can be achieved or addressed, accurately.

Chief Data Officer (or CDO) is a term that cropped up during the early 2000s, and two things became apparent to me.
