Data and Analytics at Ascension

Rick Howard, VP Data and Insights, and Chief Data Officer, Ascension. Building an advanced analytics platform is challenging, as data governance, management and integration across the spectrum of information systems and types vary. Addressing this challenge requires that organizations eliminate such variation by using mature analytics to inform workforce skill development, which in turn supports understanding the importance of employing both traditional and nontraditional data sources in decision making practices and processes across the organization.
