How to promote data literacy in your marketing team | MarTech
Briefly

In today's data-centric world, it is crucial for organizations to build data literacy across teams to enhance understanding and utilization of data insights. Many companies have a limited number of data specialists, resulting in a dependency whereby most team members struggle with data interpretations, causing delays and silos. To overcome this challenge, companies need to democratize data knowledge by offering accessible training methods such as workshops and user-friendly reports. By focusing on diverse learning styles and creating engaging educational content, businesses can empower their teams to leverage data effectively, driving better marketing outcomes.
In reality, most data is managed by a relatively small number of data scientists and other team members are sent reports that assume they understand terms such as p-value. Spoiler alert: They very well might not.
If only a small group in your organization thoroughly understands the data being reported on, your marketing team's collective potential is compromised from the start.
Making data literacy accessible and interesting can break down silos by providing multiple ways to educate your team, such as workshops or clear annotations to reports.
Focus less on avoiding repetition and more on reaching everyone, and keep in mind different learning styles when teaching data literacy.
