The Responsibility Dilemma

One thought on “The Responsibility Dilemma”

1. Yes true, currently we see data democratization, using data for all kind of roles and purposes throughout organizations.
   In the first place tools and technology wll enable this. The need for self-serviceness is increasing.
   The responsibility itself isn’t the dilemma. The “talented” employees in any organizational level will take that.
   It is their nature to do so. To act as such is having the means to perform their tasks and reach their objectives.
   Having that managed data platform is true. It will help, in fact it is a prerequisite. On it’s own you don’t have the garantee on success.
   Yes, lowering the responsibility in the organizational hierarchy is a good thing to make optimally use those talents.
   However, strategic direction and steering & control becomes not obsolete. Both should be aligned.
   By using a really managed data platform both reporting, informational as well as analytic functions use
   the one and only agreed data truth. In that way the combination of direction, business knowledge, tool experience and
   a cooperative culture will make that change, keeping the talents in the organization.
