Rethinking Analytics & Decision-Making
Data doesn't make better decisions — skillful people do. We help you build the culture that turns analytics into better decisions.
Edgius in a Nutshell
Building an Analytics-Driven Decision-Making Culture
From Data-Driven
to Analytics-Driven
Data doesn't help make better decisions.
Analytics leverages data through skillful people to bring the insights needed to make better decisions. Much more than data goes into good analytics and good decision-making.
The Elephants Story
To get better at analytics-driven decision-making, we need to address the elephants in the room.
-
Elephant 1 · Munger
50–80%
is the average time analysts and data scientists spend on data preparation before they can start analyzing.
-
Elephant 2 · Manual
500–1000
hours per year is the time analysts spend on repetitive manual work that could be automated.
-
Elephant 3 · Duplicate
+25%
is the average estimated wasted time on duplicated or highly similar analytics in large organizations.

Elephant 8: The Skills Gap
In the last 2 years, how much did your organization spend on technology for analytics, data warehouse, big data, BI and AI?
Now, how much have you invested in upskilling and empowering your people?
The Skills Gap
A significant challenge to the success of businesses and organizations.
59%
of the global workforce will need training by 2030.
39%
of workers' core skills are expected to change by 2030.
63%
of employers see the skills gap as the biggest barrier to business transformation.
From Technology
to Skills Mastery
Technology doesn't make better analytics.
Technology alone won't solve the challenge of analytics-driven decision-making. We need people with a combination of technical and power skills to get the best out of technology like analytics process automation, BI and AI/ML algorithms.

From an Organization of Individuals
to Collective Intelligence
Organizations are more than the sum of individuals.
The most valuable asset of an organization is its people and how they work together: the collective intelligence. But most organizations don’t know:
- How do people work and collaborate together?
- How does knowledge flow between people?
- How diverse is their network to help generate innovation and de-bias analytics and decisions?
Understanding, nurturing and leveraging that collective intelligence is the key to unlocking an organization’s true potential.
