Data is a valuable and non-depletable asset that organizations can use to improve their efficiency and effectiveness. To make the most out of this asset, it is crucial to have a dedicated individual who can leverage it effectively. This is where a Chief Data Officer (CDO) comes in. A CDO is responsible for three key pillars:

1. Dedication solely to leveraging data assets
2. Unconstrained by an IT project mindset
3. Reports directly to the business

By having these three pillars in place, organizations can leverage their data assets and achieve their full potential. Unfortunately, many existing CDOs lack one or more of these key pillars, which can limit their impact. To fully capitalize on the potential of a CDO, it is essential to have all three pillars in place and operating in a coordinated manner.

The objective of this book is to present the importance of these three pillars in an understandable way and provide guidance on how to implement them effectively.
