5. DATA-DRIVENDECISIONANDANALYTICSMATTER
Data are
produced in large
quantity, at high
speed and with
big variety…
Only data
processed in a
meaningful way
can be the
«gasoline» for
value creation.
… so that
somebody heard
«Data is the
new oil»
BUT

6. THEPROBLEMS
IBM -THE TOP 7 CHALLENGES FOR DATA-DRIVEN CXOs, 2016
• While access to useful
data has increased, the
ability to use insights to
drive strategy continues
to decline
• Many organizations not gaining a competitive
advantage from analytics are just beginning
to apply analytics and need more experience
Anyway, transforming data into new knowledge and insights is
hard

• The majority of data projects can
result to be succesful
