About this product

Product Information

Praise for Actionable Intelligence: A Guide to Delivering Business Results with Big Data Fast! As with most new terms, a true definition should be provided to set the readers understanding in the right place. I believe BIG DATA is, to Keith s point, moving from just numbers to actionable facts that can drive major business impacts. People are hungry for how to get this done and how much data/info is good enough to go forward and use. Plus how one can get better over time. Keith provides the way forward. Jacquelyn M. Howard, Vice President, Supply Chain, MCDonald s China/Hong Kong Actionable Intelligence has the critical insights business leaders need to leverage Big Data to win in the emerging digital marketplace! Well done, Keith! Ed Hunter, Vice President, Product Supply-Asia, Procter & Gamble Europe SA - Singapore Keith Carter s Actionable Intelligence discusses Keith s use of data personally and professionally. He understands that the answer is not just more data, but data that you need and can use to make decisions. In an era when some authors simply extoll the massive size of available data, Actionable Intelligence helps the reader to think through how to utilize the right data, including big data if necessary, at the right time, to yield results. #8212Dr. L. Joseph Thomas, Associate Dean for Academic Affairs, Professor of Operations Management, Dean Emeritus, S.C. Johnson Business School, Cornell University If you ve ever thought to yourself that there just has to be a better way, well, you re right. Actionable intelligence is not easy. In this book Keith, Donald, and Cliff provide a framework and a roadmap for how to deliver on the often-elusive promise. I m requiring my whole Business Intelligence (BI) team to read this book! #8212Robert Hewardt, Current Head of Marketing Operations at Red Hat and former IT Vice President, Computer Associates (CA) Technologies Actionable intelligence is key to any decision maker s success. Whether it is on the battlefield or in the boardroom, good information means good decisions; good decisions mean better outcomes. However, many assume this level of intelligence is only for governments and big multinationals. Not anymore. Access to technology and Big Data is the new equalizer. This book makes that case. It is a must read. #8212John Ritchie, Head of Security for a major US financial institution in Asia, and former Operations Officer for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Keith Carter understands the need for speed and accuracy of decision making in business. Actionable Intelligence supports business leaders need to have fact-based decision making. Actionable Intelligence: A Guide to Delivering Business Results with Big Data Fast! is a must read for all business leaders that require quick and fact-based decision making to support profitable business growth. #8212Bill Kunz, President, Kunz Consulting Services, with over 25 years of supply chain and procurement experience within the beauty industry
