Simply put, data democratization allows many more—even all—team members in a business to access collected data for use in building processes, making decisions, crafting metrics and more. While data democratization can certainly drive innovation and lead to employee empowerment and engagement, it is not without significant challenges and even risks that leaders must be ready for before making a final decision on how—or whether—to implement it.

Knowing both how data democratization can boost a business and how it could create risks or obstacles can help leaders make the right decision(s) for their company’s unique situation. Here, 18 members of Forbes Technology Council discuss potential benefits and cautionary considerations for companies thinking about implementing a data democratization strategy.

Beyond the benefits and cautions related to the democratization of data, it is important to build out use cases with real scenarios.

Are there downstream policies that need to be inherited?” Building use cases always reveals omissions and directions. – Jim Barrett, Edge Total Intelligence
