Sam Netherwood , Mudano
The Data Literacy Project has just completed a new global survey and report on the upskilling evolution in data literacy. Based on this research, Qlik and Accenture have created a data literacy blueprint providing practical insights and actionable steps to help businesses to deploy data literacy across their enterprises. The authors of the report will talk about their approach and findings from the responses of 1,200+ C Suite executives and 6,000+ employees in seven countries. They will share what the survey participants said about Data Literacy (spoiler they thought it was very important) and what the survey told us about the opportunities, challenges and outright surprises to be found while working to improve the use of data. We'll talk about the experiences that we distilled into the blueprint and how you can improve your companies use of data. Search for code: 664603 to locate session during the QlikWorld Event
