Abstract
Why is it always so complicated to acquire data to assist with making decisions? This chapter will provide some background as to why data is so challenging, specifically with the intent to create empathy for what those who are responsible for data go through on a regular basis. By first understanding the current issues, one can begin to work on solutions. Many books and documentations deal with all of the latest trends in data, but this chapter will attempt to explain the most relevant terms and concepts of the day. After explaining the state of data and all of the intricacies involved, this chapter will propose recommendations for how to create a data-driven culture that will increase ease and efficiency of the use of data for any institution.
