What You'll Learn

Most organizations invest heavily in data literacy training — and still can’t get leaders to make confident, defensible decisions when it matters. In this executive briefing, David Marco, PhD, President & Executive Advisor at EWSolutions, makes the case that data literacy isn’t a training problem. It’s a leadership one.

In this session, you’ll learn:

  • Why training programs improve familiarity but don’t create accountability under pressure
  • The 3 most common data literacy lies executives believe — and why each one stalls progress
  • How self-service analytics without governance politicizes data instead of democratizing it
  • Why organizations don’t fail at data literacy — they fail at executive accountability for data-driven decisions
  • How data literacy functions as an organizational outcome, not a prerequisite

Who should watch: CIOs, CDOs, Data Governance Leaders, and senior executives responsible for building data-driven organizations or scaling AI programs.
