THE TEMPLATE FOR MY PRESENTATION
WHAT IS DATA LEADERSHIP? I developed the Data Leadership Nexus as a Strategic Framework for use by Organizations in becoming a Predictive Enterprise. Its Central Tenant is Top-Down Leadership of All things Data & Analytics What does it take to be a Data Leader? Leadership is Earned, not Learned The CEO and Board have been Missing in Action for far too long when it comes to their accountability for Data & Analytics. The vast majority of CEOs & Boards are Analytics Illiterate You cannot Lead what you dont understand Funding is not a Proxy for Leadership Filling this vacuum with Chief Whatever Officers is nonsensical and unhelpful. Accountability is essential to Effective Leadership. The Organization will not follow, much less Transform w/o The CEO and Board setting the Tone & Direction The CEO cannot subordinate his/her accountability for driving all elements of the Core Strategy to Success
KEY ELEMENTS OF THE DATA LEADERSHIP NEXUS The Data Leadership Nexus is a pathway to Strategic Success when it comes to realizing the disruptive power of Big Data & Analytics. This Power has been extolled by many, yet realized by few (until now!) The Data Leadership Nexus is the linchpin of your Strategic Plan for building and sustaining A Predictive Enterprise. Evidence-based Decisioning from Front-Line to Boardroom Full exploitation of all Knowledge & Insights Optimized Operational Performance By Definition The Data Leadership Nexus is the intersection of; Top-Down Executive Leadership A Fully-aligned Organizational Culture The Use of Data, Information & Analytics as Core Competencies The Data Leadership Nexus is Your Pathway to becoming a Predictive Enterprise!
