BI, Strategy and Decision Makers - THE FUTURE

What will business look like in the not-too-distant future, will BI still exist and where will it fit? How will business, the roles of analysts and that of data itself change?

Will data analytics and business intelligence live up to its promise, and what disruptive effects will it have ?

Why haven't the benefits been realised to date, and where has the future already arrived ?

What is leadership really, and what is its ideal relationship with data ?

Where have these transformations already taken place, where not, and why ?

This is a presentation laying out the natural evolution of business driven by imperatives of competition,
automation, lowering barriers to entry and the growing importance of decision making.

A must hear presentation for those who want to know where their jobs and industry are headed. Bring you bosses, they probably need to hear this even more than you do.
