How does data ownership help to overcome the challenges in the data governance framework? Tim Hoolihan, Practice Lead for Data and Analytics at Centric Consulting, speaks with Robert Lutton, VP, Sandhill Consultants Ltd, and CDO Magazine Editorial Board Vice Chair, in a video interview about the challenges in implementing a data governance framework, his role in managing high-performing teams, and leveraging AI as a team to drive innovative solutions. A key aspect of overcoming the data governance challenge lies in data ownership, says Hoolihan. He maintains that IT is associated with owning data because data goes into technical tools or data catalogs, whereas business needs to own it. Adding on, Hoolihan states that it is unimaginable that a person working on the spreadsheets in the database owns the data and defines its importance. 👉 WATCH the interview here: https://hubs.ly/Q02wlBvN0 You can also find this episode on our podcast page! 🎧 LISTEN here - https://hubs.ly/Q02wlnzy0 #Leadership #DataManagement #ThoughtLeadership #DigitalTransformation Did you find this post relevant?

Motka states that data quality is not a quality issue but an explainability and understanding issue.

AI will succeed or fail based on data. AI has to be trained with the right data. That data needs to be of high quality. And that data needs to be augmented with more metadata from curation - reviews of data, outcomes, relationships within the data, and so on. Properly curating data for #AI requires data management technology to be modernized. We are focused on helping companies modernize their data tools and platforms to achieve better AI outcomes.
