With CDO’s and their teams enabling business success across every aspect of the business, has the time come for them to get a permanent seat at the table? With the average tenure of a CDO being around 2-3 years, proving value from the get-go is imperative. Join us as we explore if the time has come for CDO’s to step outside of operations or technology and be directly tied to the business. We will explore: 

• Ways to understand your business better to highlight the best actionable goals and objectives.  
• Creating roadmaps to success for each data team by connecting them with the appropriate business counterpart. 
• Creating an environment of proactivity for finding and addressing issues across the enterprise.  
• What being considered your own business team means for the hierarchy of reporting. 
• How AI is impacting the evolution of data analytics teams.  

In this presentation, we’ll show you what is transferable to a non-profit mission driven organization from large, for-profit enterprises, and some unique tactics needed for a successful MDM implementation in these types of organizations. We'll discuss some of the benefits of smaller teams, as well as how to capitalize on the natural overlap not-for-profit organizations are most familiar with. Join us to see how an organization actually implemented MDM, and the actual impact that it had on their success.
