Approach & Methodology
The BPW is a one-day meeting that engages leaders from the C-Suite, as well as functional business unit leaders. The Clarkston Consulting Analytics Team will assess and score your analytical maturity on a five-tiered curve. They will then share measurable analytics best practices, and recommend steps to improve the maturity and value of your organization’s analytics. As a part of our evaluation, we will help you address the following key questions:

• How mature is our analytics organization?
• How well are analytics processes and technologies integrated with our business strategy, planning and operational processes?
• How do we capitalize on our current analytics investments?
• How are our competitors using analytics?
• What steps should we take to improve our analytical maturity and the value it could generate?
• How do we make analytics an enterprise-wide strategic initiative?
• How should we structure our analytics organization? To whom, or to which  department, should analytics report?
• What types of skills will we need to support our analytics organization?
