Most leaders struggle to get the most out of data. While many have access to vast amounts of data resources, many have yet to figure out how to harness the vast sea of data effectively or how to catalyze its power and utility. Then one day, a dynamic event occurs, like a pandemic, and CEOs are faced with tough decisions on how to embrace data that responds to these dynamic situations and drive change.
In an uncertain economic environment where long-established companies are struggling, and the majority of business leaders are managing through triage, growth may seem unachievable. That’s not the case. An Accenture study found that data-driven organizations are actually growing at an average of more than 30% annually. But it takes leadership and a “go-big on data mandate” from the CEO.
Data-driven leadership starts with a new mindset, an overall data strategy and an investment in an enterprise-wide data and analytics foundation. This includes investing in data leadership and cultivating data literacy throughout the organization. By instilling a data-driven culture, a CEO can ensure the company is successful and sustainable.
