Data is eating the world and every industry is impacted. In most modern businesses, customer and employee activities create a plethora of data points and information that can be analysed and interpreted to make better decisions for the business and its customers. Unfortunately, this sounds a lot easier than it is. Despite the huge mountains of data being created, many organisations struggle to get their business intelligence to serve them in the best way. This is not due to a shortage of reports and dashboard floating around – in many cases there are too many ways to get an answer to the same question.  So, why are so many organisations lacking good BI and what should they do about it? I recently spoke to Jen Stirrup to get an answer to this question and many more relating to producing and consuming business intelligence effectively. Jen is the CEO & Founder of Data Relish, a global AI, Data Science and Business Intelligence Consultancy. She is a leading authority in AI and Business Intelligence Leadership and has been named one of the Top 50 Global Data Visionaries and Top 50 Women in Technology worldwide. In this episode of Leaders of Analytics, you will learn how to avoid data paralysis and discover how to create business intelligence that gives your organisation new superpowers.
