The Analytics Advantage
The results are in
We are pleased to share the results of the recent Analytics Advantage Survey. The survey was conducted using a mix of online questionnaires and interviews with senior executives at 35 companies in North America, China and the United Kingdom. Interviews were overseen or conducted by analytics thought leader and author Thomas H. Davenport, a visiting professor at Harvard Business School.
The survey was commissioned to better understand the state of analytics readiness at leading corporations today – and what the future may hold.
The results of the survey have been compiled in the Analytics Advantage Report, which explores how businesses are using analytics to support decision-making, what challenges they face, and what value is being realized.
