- safety analytics
MODERNIZING DATA GOVERNANCE FOR UTILITY COMPANIES
October 14, 2024 | Chicago
The world of data management continues to change, but data governance doesn’t always keep pace. New governance practices and organizations are needed to be compatible with agile, big data, cloud, and self-service to support the changing business dynamics. Building beyond enforcement to prevention, controls to services and committees to communities are at the core of data governance evolution.

FINDING MEANING IN UTILITIES DATA: VISUALIZATION & STORYTELLING
October 14, 2024 | Chicago, IL
Analytics effectiveness and impact depends on visualization skills of two kinds – ability to create visuals and ability to understand visuals. The real value of visualization does not come from creating visuals, but from understanding what they tell you. With the language of words, we learn reading and writing as separate but related skills. Similarly, with visual language we need to learn understanding (reading) and creating (writing) as distinct but related skills.
