  debt acts as a drag on all activities.&nbsp;Far too many organizations und
 ertook to &quot;get better with data&quot;&nbsp;without realizing the found
 ation changes that needed to occur.&nbsp;They were left without lasting imp
 rovements.&nbsp;Making a commitment to become data-centric, data-driven, da
 ta-first, data-focused, data-provocative (the list goes on), must be seen a
 s more akin to life-changing events of which the ubiquitous 12-step is the 
 most famous.&nbsp;Considering there are more than useful variants of the or
 iginal (AA), it seems time to make one for improving organizational data li
 teracy.&nbsp;The program describes:&nbsp;\n\n
 Motivation for taking a broad approach\n
 Required people, processes, and organizational activities\n
 Organized into 12-steps &nbsp;\n\nThese steps are required if organizations
  are to effect the necessary changes.&nbsp;12-step programs are ritualistic
  for a precise reason&mdash;to stop bad habits, you must carefully replace 
 them with better habits. Committing to 12 steps upfront, we will find it ea
 sier to achieve the critical mass required. Organizations can embark on the
 ir data improvement journey with their eyes wide open.\n
