When working with data in your organisations and work places, do you have a predecided set of 'data norms' to guide your approach? Do you need some help developing them?
In this episode, Dr Selena Fisk outlines the importance of having a clear set of norms when working with data, and talks through her ideal list of data norms. Listen on for a detailed explanation of what each could look like for your team.
Selena's list:
- We recognise that each data set reflects a small piece of the story – there is so much it doesn’t tell us. - We acknowledge that all data sets have noise and bias – using multiple sources of information is better. - No single person has all the answers – we value dialogue, not a one-way transfer of information. - We value everyone’s perspectives as we all have something to offer this conversation. - No data set/value belongs to a single individual or team – many factors contribute to the results. - We have our greatest impact when we are curious about the numbers and ask questions – blame isn't a part of this process. - We use statements such as ‘yes, and' rather than ‘yes, but’. - We use collaborative language - 'we', 'us', 'our team', rather than 'you', 'they'.
