38: The Imperative for Data Literacy
Listen now
Description
I believe that a foundational level of data literacy is as important to each and every one of us as knowing how to read and write. Today's episode is an audio recording of a presentation I gave at the NTC 2022 conference this year about the imperative we have to build our own and our team's data literacy.  Not only will data literacy help you in both your personal and professional life, but investing in data literacy at an organizational level will help you retain your employees and amplify the success and sustainability of your nonprofit.  Visit the shownotes page to watch the video version or download the slides.
