Communities first. Use Cases second. We help leaders unite their data to their business through their people.
Like most data leaders, data isn’t the issue. Working with and unifying people around data is your biggest challenge. The DataWorkbench is designed to help leaders create a collaborative data culture that works together to drive long-term transformation.
“I want to achieve good data governance outcomes for my customers without having to convene a committee; no one wants to be part of a data governance committee. XenoDATA's DataWorkbench is helping me engage with my colleagues 1:1 so that we can solve data governance problems without getting bogged down in the complexity.
Henry Ford famously said, ‘If I had asked them what they wanted, they would have said faster horses.’ XenoDATA's DataWorkbench helps us break out of the existing paradigm of data management practice by re-framing the problem in terms of business value and practical steps with measurable outcomes.
Since working with XenoDATA's DataWorkbench, I feel empowered with a process that my colleagues want to engage with and is directly linked to the business strategy of my executive sponsors.”
Implement the DataWorkbench on your own or with the help of a Fractional CDO.
Solving problems with data requires input from lots of different people. Keeping others excited about the work is critical to getting projects across the finish line. The DataWorkbench gives you the ability to unite all your stakeholders in one central location. You can set expectations, cast vision, and share real-time results to keep others engaged.
Most data solutions are built around data, not people. We do the opposite because when you invest in relationships first, identifying quality use cases becomes much easier. The DataWorkbench is the one-stop-shop where people collaborate on projects, discuss new use cases, and stay organized to deliver real and lasting change within your data strategy.
You can’t effectively govern data until you identify who you’re helping, the problems you’re solving, and how you will solve those problems. Once those items are in place, you can assign roles and responsibilities in order to do traditional governance activities like metadata management and data quality. The DataWorkbench helps leaders organize, execute on, and monitor these important steps so that governance is adopted and effective over time.
With the foundation laid, you can now watch the power of people working together. At this point, your job is to minimize friction so your teams can soar. The DataWorkbench helps you monitor community usage, track real-time results, and make adjustments to maximize engagement. If you run into any issues or have questions, on-demand support is available to help.
Discover the power of building communities before use cases. Don't take our word for it, see it for yourself.
