The IT Pro Podcast: Why data warehousing doesn’t work
Boosting data literacy is about more than just putting your data into one big pot
Data is taking on an increasingly important role within organisations around the world, but IT leaders have traditionally struggled to make staff truly understand or engage with analytics and business intelligence. There are many options for how to approach this particular challenge, but for Nationwide’s business intelligence team, the answer lies in building a culture of self-service data consumption.
This week, we’re talking to the leader of Nationwide’s business intelligence solutions Centre of Excellence, Richard Speigal, to find out how data literacy programmes and a federated model are helping the organisation’s staff to adopt data specialisations within their own teams - as well as how BI divisions can embed some of these practices into their own workflows.
