Never before has so much potentially useful information been available to organizations, along with new technologies that promise to manage and leverage this data with unprecedented power and efficiency. So why are so many uninformed decisions still causing serious organizational missteps? Why is there such a disconnect between available facts, relevant strategy, and fact-based execution?
