Why guess at the cause of your business results? Whether you are seeing positive or negative results, it is still important to understand the ‘why.’ Without this information, you cannot adapt and adjust to improve declining results, OR repeat and improve those great results you are experiencing.
If you own or work in a business, you know that, while you are busy doing what you do on a daily basis, things can change. The change itself is challenging but what is more challenging is staying abreast of what is changing, where it is changing and how it is impacting the business. If you aren’t aware of the change, things can sneak up on you. Your business can get off track and, if you aren’t aware of that misstep, you risk greater loss as time goes by. At the same time, the changes that occur that might provide a market opening or an opportunity can also fall by the wayside if you are not paying attention.
Even if your business results are on target, even if you feel you have a good handle on how to run the business and what your customers want, there is always room for improvement, and the issues that arise can often come out of nowhere. Even the best business managers cannot anticipate and see how every detail of the business might come together to create a challenge OR an opportunity.
Your senior management team has decided to engender digital transformation and improve data literacy across the enterprise. As a primary step in this process, the team wants to implement an augmented analytics solution that will encourage business users to get involved in data analytics, to use data to make fact-based decisions and to present, report and collaborate using real, current and clear information that will support collaboration and improve results.
