COVID-19 has brought significant changes to the way we work. While the crisis is proving the immeasurable value of data and analytics in the decision-making process, the work-from-home model has put incredible pressure on organizations’ collective analytics and BI (ABI) competencies. For many, it has exposed flaws in their data and ABI stacks, stressing their ability to collaborate, perform both traditional and advanced analytics, adapt their ABI infrastructure to rapid changes, and predict what will happen next.
While resilience requires the continuous use of data analytics, many organizations find their ABI infrastructure unsuitable for the job. In this time of upheaval, businesses require a stable analytics foundation that can balance the needs of individuals with the needs of the organization. Your employees not only require ready access to analytics and data, but they also need self-serve ABI environments that emphasize collaboration, performance, governance, and data accuracy.
Watch our Analytics Wherever You Are webinar with Dresner Advisory Services Chief Analyst Howard Dresner, and Pyramid Analytics Principal Technologist Ian Macdonald. In this 50-minute session, Howard explores preliminary Wisdom of Crowds® survey results regarding organizations’ response to COVID-19.
