Module 6 Discussion:
Post your responses to the following questions:
* Defend your plan for your own information Product! One or two initial aspects will do. No need to have a complete IP at this point. You will be finalizing your project this week.
* Have you seen anyone around you (your work, from this class or yourself? ) Who could become an excellent Chief Data Officer (a seminal CDO journal article available) in the future? Why?
* Describe how your insights about data, or information have changed throughout this semester. What concepts, techniques, methods, tools, or principles so far interested you the most and why?
Trevor’s Response:
My insights regarding data significantly changed throughout the semester. Presently, information is always at our disposal. I have always been around data, but I never understood how to manage and maintain data. We focused a lot of time in class on the importance of data quality and integrity. I have no current plans on working as a chief data officer or in information systems. However, this class allowed me to understand the importance of those roles. Although I will not run those systems at my job, I will likely be a data consumer with enterprise systems to solve different challenges in my day-to-day job. It is crucial to recognize the numerous data quality concerns we learned in class. It is easier for data consumers when the information is accurate, timely, and consistent. Data that lacks these qualities and does not follow the ten root conditions of data quality that we learned in class causes frustration and can extend projects costing companies valuable time and money.
Companies must realize these problems and develop information products that are strategic and provide value across Porter’s Five Forces. This class was unique in that we learned many of the crucial concepts of data and information in the beginning modules. As we moved along in the class, we better analyzed how those concepts connected with business problems and values. Understanding how these concepts relate to specific business problems helped us learn, experience, and create information products to address the challenges in the companies we used for our projects. The semester project helped tie together all the concepts we learned about data and showcases the value of integrating these systems to solve business challenges.
