Begin with the decision
A data strategy becomes useful when it supports a decision your organization needs to make. Start by describing that decision, the people involved, and the evidence they need.
Build a shared foundation
Agree on definitions, understand data quality, and make ownership clear. These foundations help teams work from the same picture.
Learn through delivery
Choose a focused use case, make progress visible, and improve the approach as your team learns. A practical first step is often more valuable than an oversized plan.
