BLOG OF THE WEEK: Top 3 lessons learned from Gartner Summit ’22
From August 22-24, Collibra attended the Gartner Data & Analytics Summit. This was a great opportunity for our team to meet with both customers and data leaders and share insights on the importance of data and analytics to the business. We had over 500 people visit our booth this year and had the opportunity to share live demos on Data Quality, Data Catalog, Data Lineage and more. We also gave out a number of prizes to the lucky winners of “spin the data wheel” and connected with the data community over happy hour drinks.
The theme of this year’s Gartner Data & Analytics Summit was to provide the tools to “deliver a world class data and analytics strategy.” At this conference, we spoke to many data citizens who are struggling to put data and analytics at the center of their business strategy. They recognize the importance of data and analytics to digital transformation, but they do not have the tools in place to ensure data democratization across their organizations.
Collibra teamed up with Moody’s to tackle this challenge and present our learnings on how to democratize data and decentralize data governance. Our Chief Product Officer Laura Sellers and Shelly Fisher, Managing Director-Enterprise Data at Moody’s shared how Collibra helped Moody’s empower their business lines to own and get the most out of their data. The packed room heard about Moody’s journey, their top use cases, key learnings, and how they became a truly customer-focused organization. Here are our top three takeaways from the presentation:

3. Put your people first
Moody’s strongly believes in focusing on the people, not the product. The people are the experts so let them own the data. Before implementing Collibra, Moody’s asked their stakeholders what they needed from a data intelligent solution. They sought their opinions, directions and learnings. These people are closest to the data so they know best what they need to do their job. The key learning here is that success really comes from your approach.
@jay.militscher.collibra.com Anyone from Collibra’s Data Office want to add anything here?

@simla.sivanandan.collibra.com and @alexandre.tkint.collibra.com in our Data Office here within Collibra describe our framework and policy based approach pretty well in their “The solution for embedding trust in your data processes” blog.
And you can actually leverage the framework yourself with this Collibra Marketplace download too.
In a nutshell we’re enabling these business subject matter experts as data owners themselves, with Data Governance tooling that helps them to be successful.
