    Presentation: Real World DQ Using the Conformed Dimensions of DQ

    If you want to communicate the importance of Data Quality, then you
    need to learn how to explain it in terms of real-world examples that
    your mother understands. Attendees will learn measures of DQ that
    impact business expense, revenues/growth and most importantly
    customer experience. We leverage the Conformed Dimensions of Data
    Quality in order to explain common data quality issues that impact
    customers, and explain how your organization can measure and
    improve customer service through improved data quality management.
