ABSTRACT
When building data and analytics solutions, a large factor determining people's success is the business sponsor and the work that they are carrying out meeting their needs. It is also likely that in low-trust environments prior to implementing DataOps, a shared vision of the direction of travel does not exist or is not accurate. Many parts of the framework for a data project must be established over the longer term, and the shape of the framework is determined by the ambition of the vision. Jennifer was targeting the key meeting with Brian Catts to build rapport and start setting up the foundations for creating collaboration between business sponsor, the users, and IT. To shape the meeting, she put together her agenda to send to Brian to contribute to. She sent the agenda through to Brian and quickly turned her attention to reading the existing documentation for the project.
