We recently hosted an insightful LinkedIn Live event that uncovered why the average tenure of a CDO remained around 2 years, why only 1 in 3 data leaders felt “very confident” in their ability to communicate the business impact of investments in their function, and why only 50% of data leaders were tracking the business value that data and analytics provide.
Speakers:
- Simon Ferriter, CEO, Anmut
- Kinnari Ladha, Global Chief Data Officer, Merlin Entertainments
- Martin Houghton, Group Data Director, Kier Group
Expertly hosted by Kyle Winterbottom, CEO & Founder of Orbition Group, this dynamic panel delved into these discussions and explored the intricacies of these issues.
Gartner predicted that by 2026, 75% of data leaders who fail to make organisation-wide influence would be assimilated into technology functions. Data leaders, therefore, faced an existential challenge—to make a measurable impact and secure their seat at the table as C-suite business leaders or risk fading into irrelevance as just another technology function. To explore this further, Orbition Group partnered with Anmut for this event. Over the past 6 years, Anmut worked closely with data leaders to help them make this leap, developing tools that enabled data leaders to make an impact quickly, prioritise what’s most important, and demonstrate value to the business.
