Agenda Day 2

2:10 PM THINK TANK: DATA LITERACY FIRST- TACTICAL STEPS TO OVERCOME THE SECTOR’S RELUCTANCE TO A MUCH-NEEDED CULTURE CHANGE

CDOs in the sector are fighting an uphill battle to overcome enterprise-wide resistance to change and encourage stakeholders to embrace data driven transformation. Focusing on data literacy programs, data leaders are starting with small, high-impact projects to demonstrate tangible benefits whilst engaging leadership to champion the cultural shift towards data-driven practices. On this journey your peers are taking onboard the lessons learned from other industries and adapting them to fit the sector by understanding the fundamental stressors, emphasizing data-driven approaches that can improve patient outcomes and quality of care.

  • Debate successful change management models, communication strategies, and ways to build consensus among diverse stakeholders
  • Hear about the impact of initiatives like investing in user-friendly tools and visualizations on the accessibility of data to non-technical staff
  • Learn more about the value data leaders are putting on creating cross-functional teams to break down silos and encourage collaboration around data initiatives
  • Explore ways to empower data citizenship within your organization by striking a balance between centralization and self-sufficiency.
