Incorporating data into innovation may appear to be an oxymoron. Roger Moore will convince you it is not and will explain how to best harness the power of data and analytics.
Event Details
The days of "golden gut" innovation are gone. Senior executives need to leverage all the data and analytics they can muster to make decisions and execute on innovations that create a competitive advantage. Enter the data science team. Their data and analytics provide the information and insight the executives need. However, there's a communication gap limiting the ability of the data science team and executives to fully realize the potential available to the organization. Understanding the organization's decision loop, the roles that each group plays in that loop and how to eliminate the gap promises to create data-driven innovation.
