1. Develop an analytical culture
Need to develop a workforce that’s enthusiastic
about finding insights from business intelligence
(BI),
But
most investment goes into developing the BI tools and
far too little into making the best use of them.
Solution
many firms have access to so much data that it’s easy to pick
material that supports the firm’s theories.
2. Deliver information wherever it’s needed
“Get the
right information
to the
right people
at the
right time”
