#068: What's The Value of Analytics? (getting buy-in)
Jun 05, 2024As data professionals, we like to assume everyone values data & analytics.
But unfortunately that's not always the case.
Getting buy-in on new data initiatives from your organization or team can sometimes become a huge challenge.
Especially when it's only viewed as a huge expense without a clear ROI.
So in today's video I want to share some ideas & tips for getting buy in from your common stakeholders.
This is based on my past experiences working at companies both large and small.
By the end of this video, you'll have new strategies to secure the support you need to build impactful data architectures in your own organization.
The main things we'll cover include:
- Things to focus on so your stakeholders to pay attention
- Common mistakes I see people make
- Tactical ideas for showing progress, faster
Enjoy!
