The third study of more than 5,000 employees across Australia, Canada, India, Singapore, the United Kingdom and the United States of America released today.
Utilising their proprietary Databilities® data literacy framework, Data To The People commissioned this third study to measure the individual data literacy of more than 5,000 employed individuals across Australia, Canada, India, Singapore, the United Kingdom and the United States of America. The 2023 Global Data Literacy Benchmark report presents a detailed analysis of the improvements in data literacy as compared to the previous study and sheds light on the expanding Confident cohort. Whilst there has been notable migration from the Curious to Confident cohorts, the same progression from Confident to Coach is not as apparent*.
“Data literacy has well and truly exploded this year! It has been a hot topic on keynote stages across the globe, and industry leaders have taken action by establishing – or expanding – their internal data literacy programs,” said Jane Crofts, CEO, Data To The People. “These efforts are starting to pay off. We’ve seen a reduction in the number of Curious across all domains and competencies – but we’ve not seen the same progression from Confident to Coach.”
“The good news is we’re heading in the right direction, now it’s time to pick up the pace,” said Crofts. “We need to find opportunities for the Confident to share their expertise, with the ultimate aim of converting some of them to Coaches. The quest for Coaches starts now.”
The Global Data Literacy Benchmark provides an opportunity for organisations to see how they measure up against their industry, region and occupations. “We’ve made it possible for organisations to measure and compare themselves to a global data literacy benchmark, allowing them to better understand the landscape in which they operate,” said Crofts. With a range of self-serve and full-service offerings, Data To The People provides the tools and expertise organisations need to measure, map and develop data literacy within their organisation.
