Published 2 weeks ago
Description
Neil Cooke, Chief Data Officer for the State of Texas, tells Dr. Adita Karkera, Chief Data Officer, Government and Public at Deloitte, that leading a statewide data program depends less on technology and more on governance, communication and trust. Cooke walks through the shift into the interim CDO role and the questions that still guide the office today: what matters most, how it is measured, where the data lives, and who can be trusted to own it.
