Data in Action

Data is not truth—it's data. The truth is hidden somewhere inside it, and the goal is to use of data to drive pragmatic insight and improve fact-based decision-making. Leaders cannot rely on analyses that produce the most attractive answer but must aim for analyses that prompt the hardest, but most impactful discussions.
