I have developed a few data strategies and would have found it easier and produced a better strategy if I had read Ian Wallis' book first. This is a book that is informed by deep, real-world experience of data strategy and the many change challenges involved. It has all the frameworks, tools and thinking you could need, laid out in a clear and readable way. For anyone involved in data or digital strategies it is a must read. </p><p> <em>Tony Gosling, Chief Digital Officer, RSBG UK Group---</em></p><p><br></p><p> Whether you are new to the area or just an old dog learning new tricks, this book offers vast experience, anecdotes and learnings from the front line for you to apply in the modern era of data. There is just so much to learn and revisit, e.g. on defensive vs offensive, dynamic data strategy, secret to success in R.A.V.E. - but most of all it's a journey not a destination. </p><p> <em>Graeme McDermott, Chief Data Officer, Tempcover</em> ---</p><p> </p><p> Data Strategy: From definition to execution' is an excellent resource for newbies to data strategy and more seasoned professionals alike. It provides a well-organised, clear approach to developing a data strategy through its complete life cycle, alongside the potential pitfalls of getting a strategy from paper into reality. The author's style is engaging and well thought out, clearly coming from a place of significant experience - if you're writing a data strategy (or if you're planning to) I heartily recommend this book, you're bound to learn something useful! </p><p> <em>Jon Alvis, Data Governance SME, Member of BSI AMT/004 Group (for ISO 8000)</em> ---</p><p><br></p><p> This really is everything you need to know about writing and delivering a data strategy! I found it filled with great analogies and stories from across the public and private sector. With the ten top things to remember at the end of every chapter, it really helped to summarise the key points. I particularly liked that it covered all the salient points of a data strategy, from control to exploitation, from strategy development to implementation and everything in between. A must read for those embarking on their data strategy journey! </p><p> <em>Lisa Allen, Vice Chair, DAMA UK</em></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Ian Wallis is a senior data and analytics leader, experienced programme manager and frequent conference speaker on data and analytics.
