What are they, and what should we do about them? Digital Disruption and Disruptive Technology are phrases flying around at the moment, but what do they actually mean, and what should we be doing about these things? Digital Disruption is defined as the change that occurs when new digital technologies and business models affect the value proposition of existing goods and services. Disruptive Technology is defined as a technology that displaces an established technology and shakes up the industry or a groundbreaking product that creates a completely new industry.

The thing that often seems to be overlooked though is: Why? Why are we analyzing data? Why are we consolidating everything into one place? Why are we producing these fancy pie charts? With data analytics, it is very important to know the how. Do I have multiple data sources? How do I consolidate them? How do I then split the data to show what I need? Etc. Without “Why” though, we are just gathering data for the sake of it. Let’s use a practical example to explain. I’m going to use Banking as the example as that’s where my history and experience lies, and it’s somewhere I have seen a lot data analytics gone ... Read More
