The practical steps to reach the goal of leveraging your data for maximum business success are detailed in chapters on database design, data capture, data cleansing, data modeling, data analysis, data reporting, database management, staff training, data protection, compliance, and governance. Dr Manning illustrates the lessons of each chapter with three running case studies of an engineering startup, a small legal firm, and a nonprofit organization.
