Online workshop: Get an overview of your systems and data (incl. IT advice)

Every cultural organization works with a growing number of digital tools: from Excel and planning software to ticketing and CRM systems. But often, the overview is missing. Who uses what, for what purpose, and how are systems and data interconnected? 

This lack of insight costs time and money and brings risks — such as duplicate work, unclear data storage, or vulnerabilities around privacy and cybersecurity. In this workshop, you will gain control over your systems and data, enabling you to work smarter and make better decisions. 

After this workshop:
  • You will have insight into digital security risks and your digital crown jewels
  • You will be better able to comply with GDPR guidelines
  • You will know how to save costs on IT and licenses

Why this is important (and what it brings you) 

Gaining control over your digital organization might seem technical, but it directly impacts your daily work. When you have a clear view of your systems, data, and processes, you can work smarter, make better decisions, and have more time for your core work. 

You avoid working with fragmented systems or duplicate tools and gain better insight into how information flows through your organization. This not only helps improve processes but also allows you to make well-informed decisions about new systems or suppliers. 

Specifically, this will bring you: 

  • Less duplicate work and more efficient processes  
  • Improved grant accountability  
  • Greater insight into audience and usage data  
  • Time savings for creators and staff  
  • Less dependency on suppliers

Additionally, it helps you reduce risks and work future-proof. You gain better insight into where you are vulnerable, for example, in terms of privacy and cybersecurity, and where opportunities lie to become more sustainable or save costs. 

  • Insight into digital security risks and your digital crown jewels  
  • Better compliance with GDPR guidelines  
  • More conscious and sustainable IT choices  
  • Cost savings on IT and licenses  

By mapping your application landscape, you lay a solid foundation for further digitalization and development of your organization.
