In Episode 42, of Season 4, of Driven by Data: The Podcast, Kyle Winterbottom is re-joined by Davin Crowley-Sweet, Chief Data Officer at National Highways.

Why CDOs are playing musical chairs The language of business is finance and what that means for dataMaking data an asset class in its own right Why your job is to create clarity from ambiguity Recognising the difference between conflict and tension Why data professionals hide too much behind technical skills Putting a valuation on your data asset and the benefits of doing so Why the valuation is merely a means to an end The difference between valuation, value, benefits and monetisationWhy being an enabler may provide good benefits but won’t capitalise on the value of the data The relationship between valuing your data asset and capital allocation How valuing the data asset has changed the business model How data people create new meanings from words that already exist and wonder why they’re being misunderstood Why it’s easier to make a data team business literate than it is to make an entire business data literateWhy you don’t need a ‘data culture’ Why there’s a fear of speaking about failure in the D&A industry Why creating a strategy was the biggest failure of his career Why earning trust and emotional commitment of the organisation is critical to successData is hard because the job exists to challenge senior leaders' belief systems Why “you’re mental” if you think technology will fix that problem Why the future skillset of the CDO is more aligned to psychologists and philosophers What you should do today as a D&A professional if you want to make a differenceThanks to our sponsor, Data Literacy Academy.
