This episode accompanies Module 9 of the course, which is about the appraisal of the data, information and evidence gathered within the organisation. The acquisition of this evidence is covered in Module 8 and its corresponding podcast episode.

In this episode we continue to consider some of the wider aspects associated with the use of organisational data. Why we can’t take it’s quality for granted; how it can be highly misleading if we don’t know where it comes from and how it’s created, and how people can continue using it for years in ignorance of its shortcomings.

The excitement around Big Data and data analytics is also discussed, to see whether these are all they are cracked up to be! And we look at the complexity associated with key performance indicators (KPIs) which again can lock us into repetitive behaviour, without questioning their value.

Once again, the importance of taking decisions based on multiple sources of evidence is reinforced.
