Dashboards on a Shoestring: The Power of Collaboration and Communication
Lucy Harrold from Goldsmiths showcases how Goldsmiths Strategy and Planning team built a comprehensive dashboard suite from the ground up in just one year – with virtually no budget. How we used creative problem solving and collaboration across teams to develop a low-tech automation solution. We’ll also look at how good change management and communications helped to improve data literacy and introduce a data-first culture to Academics.

- Cross-team collaboration fills knowledge gaps and strengthens outcomes
- Communication is essential—without support and engagement, even the best dashboards go unused
