We spend a lot of time discussing how to implement data quality and which tools are good, but rarely pause to ask &#8216;why it should matter&#8217;, &#8216;who&#8217; should truly own it or &#8216;how&#8217; should we communicate about data with everyone.<\/p>\n<p>In this session, I\u2019ll share practical frameworks and real-world lessons from my own experience and book Data Quality ROI, exploring questions like: Why does business engagement in DQ remain elusive? Who should own DQ &#8211; IT or the business? And how can we bridge that gap?<\/p>\n<p>Takeaways:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Diagnose the Disconnect:<\/strong> Identify the root causes of the friction between Business and IT regarding data ownership, and learn why traditional &#8220;command and control&#8221; governance often fails to engage stakeholders.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Simplify the Narrative:<\/strong> Learn to apply practical &#8220;Engagement Mantras&#8221; that translate technical data quality metrics into compelling business stories, ensuring your initiatives resonate with non-technical leadership.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Prove the Value:<\/strong> Walk away with a framework to reframe Data Quality from a technical cost center into a strategic asset, capable of demonstrating measurable ROI and improved decision-making confidence.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1588","seminar","type-seminar","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"start_time":"2026-04-23 15:00:00","end_time":"2026-04-23 15:30:00","theatre":634,"speakers":[1584],"businesses":[1586]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.6 (Yoast SEO v26.6) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Data Quality ROI : Shall we talk about the &#039;Why&#039; and &#039;Who&#039; of Data Quality?
