Why Most Companies FAIL at Data Strategy And How to Fix It

Meet Ananya Som — Bringing Clarity, Structure, and Confidence to Data Strategy

In a world where companies are drowning in dashboards, tools, and conflicting reports, Ananya Som , Co-founder at Dattanx , is redefining what practical, business-ready data strategy really looks like. With years of experience helping mid-sized organizations untangle their data chaos, Ananya’s approach is grounded in simplicity, alignment, and a sharp focus on what truly drives decisions. 

In her conversation on The Executive Outlook, Ananya shares why most data strategies fail — not because of technology, but because teams don’t share the same definitions, processes, and understanding of their data. She explains why consistency matters more than complexity, how trust is built through transparency, and why leaders should focus less on dashboards and more on decision-making rhythms. From fixing data foundations to creating shared language across teams, Ananya shows that real transformation starts with clarity, not tools. 

For Ananya, great data strategy isn’t about collecting more information — it’s about helping organizations act with confidence, alignment, and purpose.
