“The evolution of data will only continue to grow from here. Smart data management is no longer just a benefit for organizations, it’s a necessity,” said Heidi Bullock, Chief Marketing Officer at Tealium. “We are excited to launch the ‘Organization of the Future’ report and help companies make a seamless transition for both people and processes.”

The report highlights many factors the interviewed companies considered when successfully implementing a CDP. Establishing open lines of communication across your company in advance and widely broadcasting successes quickly following the implementation are some of these. “One major reason to publicize success [from your CDP] is to get other departments to come on board and use the CDP. They have to collect the success metrics to show these teams how it benefits their own interests,” said David Raab, Founder and CEO of the CDP Institute.
