SUMMARY: Business Intelligence (BI) & Business Analytics (BA)
DESCRIPTION: Volatility and complexity are the new normal. Most organizations are drowning in data\, but starving for information. The finance and accounting function has the opportunity to leverage Big Data and the continuum of analytics: descriptive\, diagnostic\, predictive and prescriptive. All are useful for better decision making. Collecting\, validating and reporting data is not the same thing as analyzing information where we can glean valuable\, actionable insights. In some ways the finance function is many years behind other disciplines such as marketing\, sales and supply chain managers\, in applying analytics. How can the CFO's function catch up?\n
