Seminar Overview While many companies are promoting DX and data utilization, they often face stagnation such as "PoC works but doesn't take root" or "data insights don't lead to decision-making or execution." The cause of this stagnation is not merely a lack of individual skills but also structural organizational issues like individual dependency, siloization, misalignment, and stagnation.

This seminar will clarify the causes of this stagnation from both "organization (common language and behavioral change)" and "application/approval (pathway from decision-making to execution)" perspectives, and explain concrete measures to prevent initiatives from ending at the PoC stage.

As data literacy improves, data definitions and perspectives become a common language, reducing prerequisite checks, misinterpretations, and rework in meetings and policy considerations, thereby increasing the quality and speed of decision-making. Furthermore, by breaking away from a state where knowledge and judgment are concentrated in a few individuals, the organization can replicate successful outcomes, making it easier to scale and embed successful PoCs.

Delivery Consulting will explain its approach (Data Literacy Engineering) for diagnosing which stage of data utilization—PoC, OJT, organizational deployment, or cultural entrenchment—is causing bottlenecks, and how to promote behavioral change, based on over 300 cases of support expertise.

Even when insights are gained from data, ultimately, what determines success is the speed from decision-making to execution. If application and approval processes become a bottleneck, execution will be delayed no matter how good the judgment, leading to missed opportunities.

kickflow will address challenges such as "workflow systems were introduced but approval times haven't shortened" and "operations and modifications can't keep up," explaining how to streamline applications and approvals in the AI era and key points to consider when introducing a workflow system. They will also introduce real-world examples that led to reduced approval lead times and maintenance costs.

You will gain concrete measures to simultaneously cultivate organizational awareness (literacy) and operational foundations (workflow) needed to prevent DX from becoming a "mere formality" and to ensure initiatives don't end at PoC.
