Developing a Data Strategy for Public Sector Leaders (half-day remote seminar) Public bodies and government are increasingly collecting and processing data to support and develop evidence-based practices and policies, for more operational reasons and with a view to taking advantage of the growing benefits of AI and the data economy. Given this there is a growing need for public sector leaders to have the level of data literacy and associated conceptual 'toolbox' to understand data and information as core strategic assets for the delivery of services. By the end of the course delegates should have an understanding of why it is imperative for public sector bodies to have a developed data strategy, the ability to use the Castlebridge Data Strategy Framework and the associated governance structures to plan for the future, as well as insight into the importance of the level of maturity of the organisation in terms of data management capabilities and functions. | |
