It will help you pause and consider, »are we really as data-driven as we could be?«

What do you need to become a data-driven organization?
Far more than having big data or a crack team of unicorn data scientists, it requires establishing an effective, deeply-ingrained data culture. This practical book shows you how true data-drivenness involves processes that require genuine buy-in across your company, from analysts and management to the C-Suite and the board.
Through interviews and examples from data scientists and analytics leaders in a variety of industries, author Carl Anderson explains the analytics value chain you need to adopt when building predictive business models - from data collection and analysis to the insights and leadership that drive concrete actions.
