In today’s tech-driven world, with 120 zettabytes generated annually, most of us already use data – and lots of it. “Everyone who reads a paper or scrolls through the Internet is already acquainted with data,” said Wendy Lynch, founder of analytic-translator.com and Lynch Consulting, in a recent Elevating Enterprise Data Literacy webinar. “We depend on data, compare data, react to data, debate data, and celebrate the results of data.” But using data all the time and being data-literate – knowing how to effectively read, write, work with, analyze, and communicate with data – are not the same. To improve Data Literacy, you also need strong Data Governance.
