Excel Business Intelligence Training
The business world has changed fundamentally over the past few years.
The speed of change means that mangers need to be able to make decisions quicker, but at the same time need to be able to process far more data to be able to make an informed decision.
Business has no lack of data today, with transactional systems recording every part of the business process. The key challenge for managers is how to turn the vast quantities of data into useful insight and information. Modern technology should mean we have more time to be productive but, unfortunately, the opposite is true. The business world is currently struggling to harness the potential of the enormous quantities of data generated on a daily basis.
In recent years, new technologies have allowed vast quantities of data to be processed, analysed and increasingly visualised. These new technologies allow management to understand trends, identify outliers and to see new patterns in the data that could not be processed previously effectively buying time otherwise spent using outdated methods of data analysis.
