Analytics at Work 网盘下载 pdf 免费 2025 在线 epub 电子版

　　Most companies have massive amounts of data at their disposal,

yet fail to utilize it in any meaningful way. But a powerful new

business tool - analytics - is enabling many firms to aggressively

leverage their data in key business decisions and processes, with

impressive results.

In their previous book, Competing on Analytics, Thomas Davenport

and Jeanne Harris showed how pioneering firms were building their

entire strategies around their analytical capabilities. Rather than

"going with the gut" when pricing products, maintaining inventory,

or hiring talent, managers in these firms use data, analysis, and

systematic reasoning to make decisions that improve efficiency,

risk-management, and profits.

Now, in Analytics at Work, Davenport, Harris, and coauthor Robert

Morison reveal how any manager can effectively deploy analytics in

day-to-day operations?one business decision at a time. They show

how many types of analytical tools, from statistical analysis to

qualitative measures like systematic behavior coding, can improve

decisions about everything from what new product offering might

interest customers to whether marketing dollars are being most

effectively deployed.

Based on all-new research and illustrated with examples from

companies including Humana, Best Buy, Progressive Insurance, and

Hotels.com, this implementation-focused guide outlines the

five-step DELTA model for deploying and succeeding with analytical

initiatives. You'll learn how to:

Use data more effectively and glean valuable analytical

insights

Manage and coordinate data, people, and technology at an

enterprise level

Understand and support what analytical leaders do

Evaluate and choose realistic targets for analytical

activity

Recruit, hire, and manage analysts

Combining the science of quantitative analysis with the art of

sound reasoning, Analytics at Work provides a road map and tools

for unleashing the potential buried in your company's data.
