Business processes matter, because business processes are how value is delivered. Understanding how to work with business processes is now a core skill for business analysts, process and application architects, functional area managers, and even corporate executives.

Everything is backed up with real-world examples, and clear, repeatable guidelines.

A Data Strategy for Becoming Data Driven

Becoming data driven will not be achieved by acquiring new technologies and tools alone. It requires a holistic transformation of existing business models involving culture change, process redesign and a step change in data management capabilities. A realistic roadmap which spells out what an organisation must do to achieve its data goals and aspirations is essential. This seminar by Nigel Turner will outline the practical steps needed to produce an achievable data strategy and plan, and how to ensure that it becomes a living and agile blueprint for digital change.
