Why data governance is essential in times of increasing data complexity | Series: Spotlight

In this edition of "Dataciders Spotlight," Lukas Gernoth, Senior Data Consultant at Dataciders in Munich, provides deep insight into the challenges and developments in the field of data governance.

Challenges and solutions: The increasing volume and complexity of data poses significant hurdles for companies. However, structured data governance offers a promising way to overcome these hurdles.

A first helpful step could be a data governance assessment, in which the current situation is analyzed together with the customer. In addition, training courses are offered to improve data literacy and increase understanding of how to handle data within the company.

Future developments: Lukas highlights exciting trends, particularly the increasing decentralization of data. This enables specialist departments to work independently with data, leading to greater transparency and improved efficiency.

Success story: An example shows how Dataciders helped a customer avoid making the wrong decisions. A data governance assessment was used to define new responsibilities and introduce an effective data management system.
