Talk Analytics with Executives – Revisited

Seems ridiculous, doesn’t it? Businesses invest in analytics resources, they must value the information. But these analysts are right – executives often put little weight on analytics when making decisions. One reason for this, perhaps the biggest reason, is that most executives can’t understand most analysts. The communication gap between analysts and decision makers stands in the way of fact-based decision making. Executives have the power, and they aren’t rushing to attend statistics classes, so it’s up to us to learn their language if we want to be heard and understood. Four months later, I am still getting notes about this piece. One experienced analyst wrote: “Your approach to dealing with executives is much different than mine (I tend to favor the 'overwhelm 'em with developing conclusions,' which we both know doesn't work that well).

“Overwhelm ‘em with developing conclusions.” IT Leadership: Connect: Defending Your Analytics: Handling Hecklers. The Nature of the Beast The trumpet sounds and the matador, dressed in gold, parades into the ring as a band plays for his entrance.

Defending Your Analytics: Handling Hecklers

So begins the ritual of bullfighting. Highly structured and stylized, bullfighting demands a tremendous commitment in study, practice and personal risk. Who is the matador trying to impress? Certainly not the bull. Your computer beeps, alerting you that a meeting is about to begin. Who are you trying to impress? Your presentation is thoughtfully structured. The matador is not bullfighting because he wants a steak sandwich. Your goal, your only goal, is to persuade the decision maker to take the action you recommend. Just as the bull will fight for his life, there are challengers whose interests differ from yours, challengers prepared to go down fighting.

Executives Don’t Like Analytics: Why Business Isn’t Data-Driven. The business bestseller lists have showcased several high-profile books featuring case studies of companies enjoying competitive advantage from their cutting-edge use of analytics.

Executives Don’t Like Analytics: Why Business Isn’t Data-Driven

Pick one of those case studies, any one you like, and find someone who works at that company – the department and job don’t matter. Use any excuse you like to start a conversation, and give your contact the opportunity to vent about the professional issues of the day. It’s a safe bet that you’ll discover evidence that the company isn’t using analytics consistently and well across the organization.

The companies enjoying the greatest successes with analytics are still missing many obvious opportunities to use and benefit from analytics, even though they have hard evidence of the benefits, as well as in-house expertise and other resources. If that’s going on in the cream of the crop, imagine the level of neglect among the vast majority of businesses, the ones who aren’t profiled in bestsellers.
