Five Keys to Leading in the Age of Analytics

May 10, 2017
Industryweek

One trend for large corporations is that the size of the organization is no longer a competitive barrier to producing world-class analytics. An emerging trend is that the competitive advantage that large companies have in the use of analytics is disappearing as the cost of accessing, processing, and storing data is plummeting. Large teams of data scientists and millions of dollars are no longer required to drive insights from a company's data assets. Analytical methods and tools are becoming more ubiquitous and less costly, leveling the playing fields for companies large and small.

Executives that know how to lead in this new era of data analytics will outpace their competition. It will require a shift in how analytics are viewed and the importance an organization places on the building of analytical capabilities. There are five keys to leading in the age of analytics:

1. Analytics as a Corporate Strategy

Embed analytical capabilities and strategies into your corporate objectives. Having a clear vision of winning through analytics is essential to provide direction and organizational energy for the development of these needed capabilities. It is through these new methods, tools, and techniques that you will develop new products, services, markets and opportunities.

2. Monetization Strategy

Develop monetization strategies as valuable corporate assets. A monetization strategy is a plan to achieve one or more business goals through tactics or actions that improve the bottom line, either increasing revenue or reducing costs. In the same way, an organization might develop KPIs to help manage and understand business performance, monetization strategies that drive a competitive advantage should be developed continuously and shared throughout the organization.
