According to Dataversity research, only 24 percent of the global workforce is confident in their ability to consume, analyze, and leverage data. However, the narrative surrounding data literacy today misses the crux of the issue: companies need the ability to tell a customer-centric, accessible story with data. We’ll never see data literacy improve at scale across organizations until those delivering the data are equipped to do so in a way that’s easily interpreted and used by the data consumers.
“When it comes to increasing data literacy, the onus has to shift from those tasked with interpreting the data to those presenting the data. Low data literacy isn’t a user error, it’s a storytelling failure,” said GoodData founding CEO Roman Stanek. “To scale data literacy and drive data-driven decision making, the expectation must be on the data provider to deliver a customer-centric, designed experience. That’s easier said than done for a lot of companies today, which is why GoodData’s platform and new capabilities are built to help organizations succeed in delivering consumable data via cohesive, accessible data storytelling.”
