BIG Bo(o)k Club - Information and Data

David Dunning

BIG Book Club session for discussion Information & Data Materials, and the AI supplement - https://big-cic.org.uk/information-and-data-theme

The next instalment of the BIG Bo(o)k Club meeting will start to go through the Information and Data aspects of BIG, and share new knowledge developed with partners recently.Many organisations say they want data-driven decision making.But look closely at how governance actually works.Boards review slide packs. Managers compile reports manually. Different teams bring their own numbers.By the time decisions are made, the information is often fragmented or already out of date.The result is familiar: decisions shaped as much by narrative and persuasion as by evidence.In Business Integrated Governance (BIG) we start from a different premise.Information needed for governance, accountability and assurance should not be assembled meeting by meeting. It should be systematically sourced, traceable, and connected to the objectives and responsibilities that governance bodies oversee.This idea has been part of BIG for some time. The original thinking focused on building integrated information and management insight across governance, management and delivery.What is changing now is the technology landscape.Modern data platforms, integration tools and AI capabilities mean organisations can move much closer to this model than was previously practical. Information can be drawn from multiple systems, structured around governance needs, and surfaced in ways that help leaders understand performance, risks and outcomes.So the conversation is evolving - from simply integrating data, to building an information capability that actively supports governance and decision-making.We have started bringing this thinking together in the BIG Information and Data Theme:<a href="https://big-cic.org.uk/information-and-data-theme/" title="https://big-cic.org.uk/information-and-data-theme/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://big-cic.org.uk/information-and-data-theme/</a>I would be interested to hear from others working on similar challenges.How does information reach your governance forums today? And are decisions genuinely information-led - or still personality-led?Join our discussion!More about the Book Club here - <a href="https://big-cic.org.uk/big-book-club/" title="https://big-cic.org.uk/big-book-club/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">BIG Book Club</a>
