Often, data and analytics leaders define a strategy that is focused primarily on technology and architecture. This leads to failure of a majority of data and analytics initiatives across enterprises. The book recommends defining a holistic strategy through five key elements – (a) business capabilities, (b) technology and architecture, (c) team, processes, and governance, (d) organizational change management, and (e) value measurement framework.
