Building Value-driven Data Strategy: Use Case Approach – Part 2 - DataScienceCentral.com

In Part 1 of the blog series on building a value-driven data strategy, I discussed the challenges associated with framing the data strategy process as a deliverable. A Data Strategy, like a Business Strategy, should ebb and flow depending upon what is "valuable" to the organization given the current business environment. Instead of thinking of your data strategy as a one-time deliverable, think of your data strategy as a continuous journey that evolves as the business environment evolves. We must move from data strategy as a "big bang" deliverable toward an agile, continuously-learning, value-driven data strategy journey. We can leverage the "economies of learning" to power our agile, living data strategy journey.
