Keep your schedule open to attend KPMG’s sessions where we will be focusing on the impact of information on business outcomes in the digital economy, the evolution of the HR function, how to run a lean, high impact IT organization, and how to transform data into a more intelligent enterprise.
Executive Solution Session
Is Your Data Working for You or are You Working for your Data?
Presented by:
Jeanne Johnson, Global Business Intelligence Lead Partner, KPMG LLP (US)
In the Digital Economy, “information” is changing how companies operate, how they connect, and how markets interact. Data is everywhere, well beyond what was historically managed within company walls. Coping with information from transaction systems is challenging enough—but it’s compounded by the need to access and analyze insights from disparate reporting systems, dashboards, and decision models. Add external data from customers and social media, and the complexity of getting value from data becomes even greater. So while the ability to collect, manage, and analyze data can lead to better business outcomes, the difficulty of realizing value from data will continue to increase even with the best analytics engines at your disposal.
