Not having a clear path to exec sponsorship and what the value expected will be is not great.</li><li>How do I add this to my priorities - essentially 'great, but that's more work I can't take on.'</li></ol><br/><p>And the 4 you should look to lean into:</p><ol><li>Find your initial use case that is self-contained in the domain. </li><li>Move at the speed of business.</li><li>Find a use case that is easy enough with enough return to pay for itself as you also invest in the other aspects.</li><li>We will be investing heavily in making your domain better with data.</li></ol><br/><p><br></p><p>Provided as a free resource by Data Mesh Understanding / Scott Hirleman.
