Business culture and organizational design are two critical factors in creating success for your business analytics programs. Learn how to organize for success, navigate politics and culture, gain user adoption and create a performance culture in your organization.
Create your Organizational and Behavioural Strategy
Understand the key areas you need to consider as you prepare your organizational design and business analytics community. Read Chapter 2 of the BI Strategy Book to help you as you create your strategy for this area.
Understand the Value of the Center of Excellence
Analysts have found that organizations who implement a Center of Excellence (whether it is a Business Intelligence Competency Center, Business Analytics Community of Excellence, or an Information or Performance Management Competency Center) Outperform.
Get Executive Buy-In
No matter how promising a solution appears, without executive buy-in, it can gather dust and fade away. Executives can build alignment with the strategy by lending their support. Some business leaders need to be sold on the idea of standardization, other times by educating the key stakeholders about the goals of Performance Management.
Build your Center of Excellence
A BICC organizational structure groups people together with interrelated disciplines and skills for the purpose of promoting expertise through an organization. If BI is to extend beyond a tactical deployment to become a broader based strategic solution, it requires a more managed, predictable approach.
