Jonathan Nancekivell-Smith, Head of the Prime Minister’s Implementation Unit, delivered an excellent talk here at The D Group. He is a strong believer in data analysis and as part of the data revolution in Government he always asks five key questions at the outset of any programme:

What is the Goal of the Programme?

How lucky do you have to be to achieve your Objectives?

Who are the major stakeholders and are they aligned?

How will we know that we are on the trajectory to achieve our goals?

What is your Plan B, C and D?
