Changing Mindsets for Data

A half-day workshop addressing the following issues:

- Why do we have problems with data?

- We never get exactly what we need, the quality is not good enough, it takes too long, costs too much and nobody is accountable

- Every organisation struggles with data

- Perhaps we are not 'seeing' data in the right way

- In today's data driven world, it is imperative that we communicate clearly and effectively about data

This course will help you see data in a totally different way, become more effective in working with it and communicating with others.

This workshop is part of the Data Management Agenda for Privacy

Completion of the course will provide the delegate with:

- An understanding of the current thinking about how the human brain sees the world and, in particular, how we 'see' data

- An understanding of the concepts of 'systems thinking'

- An understanding of the concepts behind self learning (human) systems

- The perception of data as being separate from process and function

- A better process for identifying and achieving data ownership

- Improved communication with data analysts and scientist to deliver systems quicker, faster, cheaper and more securely
