Misaligned Data Led to Mistrust.
The company’s data organization lacked alignment with business goals, making routine analyses unreliable and mistrusted by stakeholders. Despite discussions around implementing a data mesh, no concrete plan was in place to address this challenge. The absence of a well-structured data organization led to confusion and inefficiencies, and there was no way to ensure the transparency or consistency of data used for business decision-making.
