Beschreibungen

<p>This book looks at strategies to help companies become more intelligent, connected, and agile. It discusses how companies can define and measure high-impact outcomes and use effectively analytics technology to achieve them. It also looks at the technology needed to implement the analytics necessary to achieve high-impact outcomes—from both analytics tool and technical infrastructure perspective. Also discussed are ancillary, but critical, topics such as data security and governance that may not traditionally be a part of analytics discussions but are essential in helping companies maintain a secure environment for their analytics and access the quality data they need to gain critical insights and drive better decision-making.</p>

<p><b>Fifteen years</b> ago, edge companies began to revolutionize their business with advanced analytics. Now those analytics capabilities are table stakes. But the problems analytics were supposed to solve remain:</p> <ul> <li>Intelligence is fractured and inconsistent across the enterprise</li> <li>Agility is difficult to achieve while maintaining growth</li> <li>Costs are too high and difficult to control</li> <li>Data value and potential is difficult to unlock</li> </ul> <p>New technologies hold new promise, but they are simply more tools in an ever-growing box. They are only as effective as those who wield them. Throughout the author's 20+ years of experience in helping companies identify and solve their most intractable problems, he has observed a common theme: those companies that wield analytics tools effectively do not simply deploy analytics solutions. Instead, they embrace a culture of analytics, and they embed analytics throughout their organization, at the cellular level. Analytics becomes pervasive.</p> <p>Thus, this book. It is not prescriptive. There is no methodology, no rubric, or framework. There is no magic solution, no one thing that must be done. Rather, it is a reflection on lessons learned—from successes and failures—on how companies can transform analytics from tools they use, to a philosophy that makes knowledge and analysis pervasive and helps them define who they are now, and who they will become.</p>
