The Data Culture for Teams Assessment uses the ten DataIQ culture dimensions, as outlined in the DataIQ report The Ten Pain-Points of Culture. Each dimension contains three to four questions specific to an individual’s perception of the organisation in those areas.
The results are presented in a report that identifies where data culture weaknesses lie and suggests measures for improvements. Investigating elements ranging from fluency to leadership, innovation to collaboration, the assessment ensures any organisation-specific challenges to a thriving data-first mindset are identified and laid bare.
The DataIQ Data Culture for Teams Assessment can be shared across all teams and seniority levels to provide a comprehensive understanding of organisational data culture. This is aided by easy-to-read bar charts, radar graphs and questionnaire insights, including an index of team-by-team responses.
“Data culture – or, to what extent there is a shared, collaborative and innovative data-first approach within an organisation – is largely considered immeasurable,” said Peter Galdies, director, DataIQ. “DataIQ has created a comprehensive way of measuring this through proven dimensions that cover all areas and levels of an organisation. The results from this assessment can help save wasted investment in both money and time by identifying the key areas and teams that prove a real sticking point for overall data culture.”
Upon conclusion of the assessment, the following steps streamlined by the six-pillar DataIQ way will help ensure maximum benefit from the results is attained:
- Option for DataIQ to present findings to greater leadership team.
- Leadership roundtable discussions based on cultural dimensions within the membership organisation and across DataIQ’s membership base.
- Training specific to cultural dimensions. Topics on offer include Business Partnering, Facilitating Action, Data Storytelling, Commercial Literacy, Presentation Skills, Data Visualisation and Successful Project Planning
“To understand and identify areas within a business across multiple teams where data culture issues are rife – and to identify exactly what the cause of those issues are – is an invaluable asset,” added Galdies. “Data culture cannot be improved before it is understood. This Assessment provides the understanding on a silver platter.”
There are many benefits to be found by examining the overall levels of data culture by team. DataIQ invites breakdown analysis by team but allows the member to view the data from another lens. Some members have opted for geography to understand discrepancies in culture based on location, whereas some have opted for seniority, highlighting how specific hierarchies impact culture perceptions.
The DataIQ Data Culture for Teams Assessment is only available to DataIQ members, adding to the benefits of membership including unrivalled access to industry leaders, data education programmes and exclusive member events.
