It is impossible to keep up with the speed at which data grows in your organisation, however you can continuously improve how you work with data. Here are 5 of the key ways:
- Transfer the heavy lifting of data processing to scalable technologies – this frees you up to focus on what the data is telling you
- Work more visually with data – it is more efficient and helps you tell your story better
- Bring as much of your data into a standardised format as you can – accessing multiple sources through different software/portals creates barriers
- Give your colleagues direct access to some of the key numbers – it will reduce demands on your time
- Collaborate – more Analysts will lead to better debate and develop a richer story more quickly
