Goal Setting with Modern Data Integration
Before you start the process of setting goals with your modern integration plan:
Step One: Step Two:
Understand how to leverage data integration, and Clearly define and organize your organization’s goals
The desire to have the latest technology should not drive your digital transformation journey. After all, newer tech capabilities are not always appropriate when applied to the particular context in your organization. Instead, evolving your technological environments should be driven by the needs of the business so that the data infrastructure and practices can best support the business’s unique goals and culture. From identifying risks and inefficiencies to facilitating regulatory compliance, the level of visibility created by effective data integration is invaluable for any organization. But visibility alone is not enough to drive success. It is useful only insofar as it causes meaningful changes. Data, in other words, should not just be analyzed. Instead, data should inform solution design and decision-making in your organization—and to accomplish this, it requires your leadership buy-in.
Leadership buy-in is fundamental to effectively put data to work and support business goals.
To drive buy-in, organizations can lean into data literacy training, which teaches leaders when and why to invest in the retirement of legacy systems and how to design and use modern data management. Buy-in generates organizational alignment and ensures that employees will act upon insights derived from data.
