In today’s data-driven world, bridging the communication gap between business and IT has never been more critical or challenging. Learn the groundbreaking approach to solving this age-old problem by leveraging the power of stories to build better data models. Rather than diving into technical jargon, we’ll show you how to extract business needs and translate these insights into actionable data solutions.
Written for both business professionals and IT experts, this book introduces the Ensemble Logical Modeling (ELM) approach—a structured yet flexible framework that helps organizations align, refine, and design data models that meet their specific needs.
