By integrating Health Science data domains into a well-governed Data Lake and developing an enriched data catalog for discovery, we create a self-service model that empowers the Yale community to make data-driven decisions. Foundational requirements for this approach are ready access to key data resources in a user-friendly format that guides users to the correct data for their analysis. Our panel of decision-makers and technical leaders will discuss insights on the value of data literacy, and how ready access to comprehensive data enhances business decisions.
This session will introduce attendees to Yale’s data governance program, with a focus on data stewardship. By examining the history, evolution, and future of the program, the presentation will explore how data governance has become an essential component of the university’s broader data strategy. Attendees will gain insights into how Yale’s approach fosters collaboration, builds a data-driven culture, and supports institutional priorities. The session will also highlight the emerging role of data stewardship and its critical contributions to sustainable data governance practices.
There is often a lot of frustration when it comes to getting data into the hands of the people who need it. Why is it so hard? Why does it take so long? What do we need to do make this work better?
Burak & Jon would like to share their experience of learning how to communicate and work effectively in a collaboration of two distinct teams tasked with achieving a shared goal. We will include the challenges encountered, the techniques we used to learn to speak each others "business language", and some best practices for how to collaborate successfully
