Insights and analytics
Data driven decision making in business is often described as a process where managers, senior and middle, make use of internal data though automated reports and dashboards in their strategic and everyday decision making.
More than often the emphasis is on the technology that makes the data available. Culture and decision-making maturity are also widely said to be important ingredients in data driven decision making. The ability to include unbiased relevant data and exclude its opposite is equally important.
A summary of all the pros and musts of data driven decision making would sound something like this:
The advantage of data driven decision making is that is makes decision making unbiased and measurable.
Support a data friendly culture that will make relevant and reliable data available to decision makers with decision-making maturity that can process unbiased information and make fact-based decisions.
Going into a new market is one of the riskier ventures a company can get themselves into (considering the investments that goes along with a new geography and language). In a case like this the purpose of data as a base for making decisions is to minimize risk, or to learn as much as possible (to put it in plain speech). A single data source (such as industry reports and Nielsen-data) will not give you enough information about the road ahead. Reports like these are mostly concerned with number of items sold or high-level revenue numbers. By themselves, they say nothing about potential (even though it’s data).
Using internal data, such as Google Analytics, will give you some indication about internal success. However, very little about outside factors having an impact on your business. Based on historical performance, can you really say something about future performance other than using a formula including the value “infinity”? No, the future requires external data points. By adding external data to your internal data, a more comprehensive map reveals itself.
