Both extremes produce strikingly similar failure rates.<\/p>\n<p>This session introduces the Three Pillars Framework: an evidence-based approach that balances Business objectives, Data fundamentals, and Technology implementation. We&#8217;ll unpack why the industry&#8217;s swing from &#8220;tech-first&#8221; to &#8220;tech-ignorant&#8221; has simply traded one set of failure modes for another, and how neglecting any single pillar &#8211; whether that&#8217;s data modelling, executive sponsorship, or platform capability &#8211; creates predictable points of failure. As organisations race to deploy AI and machine learning, these fundamentals matter more than ever.<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll leave with a framework for diagnosing imbalance in your own projects and strategies for navigating the most common pitfalls. No silver bullets. No theology. Just a structured approach you can start applying on your very next project.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Takeaways<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>When you leave this session, you&#8217;ll understand why data projects fail at such consistent rates, regardless of whether they&#8217;re technology-led or business-led, and how to spot the warning signs early in your own projects.<\/li>\n<li>When you leave this session, you&#8217;ll know how to apply the Three Pillars Framework to diagnose imbalance and integrate business objectives, data fundamentals, and technical delivery from day one.<\/li>\n<li>When you leave this session, you&#8217;ll have a clear model for what genuinely successful data delivery looks like and concrete strategies for avoiding the most common pitfalls across the project lifecycle.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1721","seminar","type-seminar","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"start_time":"2026-04-22 15:45:00","end_time":"2026-04-22 16:15:00","theatre":635,"speakers":[1415,1435],"businesses":[1417]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.6 (Yoast SEO v26.6) -
