29. Last thoughts Good data leadership prioritises your efforts. Weighing doesn’t fatten the pig. Never underestimate how many times you need to explain where predictions come from. Never underestimate how much data frightens your colleagues. But it takes away excuses. The CEM Centre team are fantastic – keep asking them questions, they don’t mind What are your first steps?
