 versity.net/sessionPop.cfm?confid=151&proposalid=13916\nGovernment agencies
  are creating Chief Data Officer (CDO) positions. People hired into these n
 ew positions get to shape the role and the organization. While there is no 
 lack of data, the operating structures, processes, and rules vary a lot.\nI
  was hired as the first CDO in one of the state agencies with no counterpar
 ts in the state government. I was given a well-written, long position descr
 iption, and management support to act, but no team or budget. In this sessi
 on, I will share the strategies I used to grow data maturity and what lesso
 ns I learned along the way.\nThe session will offer a practical guide to th
 ose interested in government data careers on how to get a successful start 
 as a CDO, build relationships with IT and business, and define data value f
 or elected officials.\nAttendees will learn about these topics:\n\n
 Defining the CDO&rsquo;s executive sponsor\n
 Creating and navigating data governance councils\n
 Speeding up data use agreements\n
 Building a powerful relationship with the CIO\n
 Data management tools on a shoestring budget\n
 Data engineer, data architect, data analyst, communications person, data et
 hics mediator, yes you get to do all these jobs as a CDO.\n\n
