I'd like to be a.... a dentist??? Nice example of how so many #marketing teams take a shotgun approach. Email is cheap, but the payback is zero if you don't know your #customer / prospect.

More and more #data & #analytics leaders are opting to drop the term"#governance" in favor of value-oriented options (e.g. "enablement", "empowerment", "curation"). Words matter. Principles remain the same, but use language that resonates in your org's culture.

Good discussions w/@Gartner_Inc clients about "certifying" #data sources. But maybe more important is certifying PEOPLE -- on data literacy, understanding, awareness of #governance constraints, etc. Without the right skills, doesn't matter how great your data is. #Analytics

Hello technology vendors, marketing & PR folks, etc. Just a small tip for you. @Gartner is a woman in Switzerland who's into UX design. Maybe she appreciates the visibility, but I think you meant to use @Gartner_Inc when referencing our Magic Quadrants, market share reports, etc.

Sadly, my first thought after skimming this headline was “what does #Amazon need priests for?”. They do say the company is a business miracle I guess. #toomuchtech

Interesting bill in US Senate for SEC to require "#data operators" (those holding/aggregating/monetizing #consumer data) to assess and expose the economic value of their data. govtrack.us/congress/bills… Early steps toward accounting principles for data. #infonomics #OOW19

"Management is doing things right, #Leadership is doing the right things". In #data & #analytics, stop working so hard to get old things right (control, standardize, centralize). These are no longer the right things to do. For Gartner clients: gartner.com/document/39574…

#Data #governance is a perennial leader in the MQ for Boredom. You need to talk about it differently and play offense (not just defense -- risk, compliance, etc). Adaptive approaches will help. [For @Gartner_Inc clients: gartner.com/document/38894…] #GartnerSym

Talking to a client about #data & #analytics #governance. Me: Where do you think you stand on maturity with this topic today? Client: Does your maturity model have a "sub-zero" level?

A popular topic at #GartnerSYM this week -- how #datawarehouses, #datalakes and #datahubs are not the same thing. All are required in combination for a modern data architecture. Insights for Gartner clients: gartner.com/document/39809…
