Many organizations have multiple, uncoordinated and tactical business intelligence (BI) implementations that have led to “silos” of technology, skills and processes.

A new set of skills, organizational competencies, and funding and sponsorship models is needed to overcome these silos and the harm they do to realizing the business value and impact of BI, including increased total cost of ownership.

Discussion Topics:

• Core skills and competencies needed to support a BI competency center
• Organizational and funding models for a BI competency center
• Best practices for using BI technologies skillfully to gain the insight needed to make better decisions

Presenters: Bill Hostmann, VP Distinguished Analyst (Gartner bio) &  Josh Parenteau, Research Director (Gartner bio, LinkedIn profile)
