Not all data is created equal! Think about property data for a commercial real estate company, product data for a retailer, or customer data for a marketing company. Establishing control over your company's critical data is a game changer, a competitive advantage, and ultimately an expectation! This presentation gives insight into JLL's critical data journey: the challenges, the insights, and the results. We address the why's, what's, and how's:

  • Why is critical data so important?
  • What was JLL's approach to critical data? 
  • How did critical data change the game for JLL? 
  • What comes next in JLL's critical data journey? 
  • What can you do to "drive" critical data in your company?
