Data Optimization as Strategy
Creating Competitive Advantage in the Age of Intelligent Automation

The 21st century is exponential. Competitive Advantage today requires agility, adaptiveness, and collaboration both inside and outside the walls of your organization. Your infrastructure, processes, workforce, and most importantly - your data - must be able to outpace and outmaneuver your competition. To achieve this, successful organizations are adopting data-driven strategies and building Data Strategies directly aligned to their core strategic imperatives.

To transform an organization - to become data-driven - and reap the benefits of Intelligent Automation, Digital Transformation, and Artificial Intelligence, leaders must transform their thinking about and relationship with Data,Technology, and the people who manage both.
 
In this short seminar, author and Data Strategy expert John Eisenhauer will re-introduce you to the Data Strategy as a key driver for achieving your core strategic objectives and creating competitive advantage, operational efficiency, and minimizing risk.
 
The landscape of competition in all industries is shifting. Artificial Intelligence, Advanced Analytics, Data Regulation, and Cloud Enablement have elevated the competition. The rules are changing, the playing field is shifting, and the pace of change is increasing. The "three-legged stool" of People, Process, Technology is evolving. Today, to be maintain their positions in the market, organizations must add a fourth leg (Data); converting their 3-legged stool into a chair. To be-truly competitive in the face of exponential change and unprecedented disruption, they must turn that chair into a throne with a Data Strategy designed for the Age of Intelligent Automation.
