As a C-level executive in your organisation, how do you go about extracting the full value of your organisation’s data assets, while also mitigating the risks associated with that data? To achieve both, you need to understand where your data is, who is using it, and how it flows throughout your organisation. By becoming more data-focused in your technology investments, as well as in your people and processes, your organisation can begin to drive revenue creation, unlock new efficiencies, and steer better all-round data governance and compliance.As the Head of Strategy at Infocentric, my team and I partner with organisations to help them achieve greater maturity in the way they use their data assets to drive business insights. By understanding their industry and organisational challenges, we can develop the business case to enable self-funding, incremental investments based on specific use cases. With more than 20 years’ of experience as a senior IT executive and consultant, I have a broad range of specialist expertise across data analytics, CRM, supply chain management, and financial management. I’ve lead strategy and analytics enablement engagements for large ASX companies, with a focus on leveraging data to optimise decision making and business improvement.With a commercial and finance background, I understand how crucial it is for organisations to understand how information can enable real business value before an investment can be considered. I also pride myself on consistently focusing on business adoption as the key driver for any technology enabled change.
