About Ben Meade
I help you unlock & harness the power of your information by better understanding it, looking after it properly and maximising its value.In my decades of experience as a leader in data, governance & IT I've seen first-hand the negative impacts of not having a good understanding & control of your most important datasets: - no "single point of truth" and poor data quality holding back effective, timely decision-making, organisational performance & strategy- siloed, disjointed datasets and IT systems causing friction, inefficiencies & increased costs- major Business/Change programmes failing to deliver expected benefits or exceeding budgets due to poor understanding, ownership & control of the datasets involved- embarrassing, messy data breaches caused through lack of effective oversight, awareness or control.In our modern, digital (AI) world, data is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it’s the life-blood of an organisation, there to be harnessed to support performance, decision-making and strategy. On the other, it creates one of the biggest risks, with the latent capability to jeopardise your ability to operate, your organisational reputation and potentially your balance sheet.I created the concept of information fitness – reflecting the fact that just having information & technology isn’t enough. You need the skills and systems to safely and securely manage it and get the most out of it. And you also need data that’s fit for purpose. This is what I’ve called information fitness®.By understanding your organisation’s level of information fitness, how this affects your current capabilities, and any gaps, risks or opportunities, I can work with you to develop a strong, pragmatic plan to rapidly drive improvements, using practical toolkits I've distilled from my decades of expertise and experience.If you'd like to:- be confident you are in control of your most important datasets, able to demonstrate this to Customers, Investors and other key stakeholders- have a good, organisation-wide, shared understanding of how information drives organisational performance, decision-making and strategy- be able to trust your data quality, with a single point of truth for key metrics, reporting and decision-making- improve efficiency and productivity, maximise the benefits of major Business/Change programmes- reduce costs, minimise the risk of data breaches, associated fines or reputational damage then get in touch for a chat, I'd be very happy to help you unlock the power of your information!https://calendly.com/ben-meade/ringfence-discussion
