Legacy Companies Need to Become More Data Driven — Fast |
|
June 15, 2021
By Randy Bean & Ash Gupta
The ability to deploy data as a competitive business asset is what has distinguished a set of well-established, data-rich companies who have reigned as market leaders over the course of the past several decades.
As coauthors of this article and as long tenured industry executives, using data to drive better decision-making and more personalized customer service has long been our focus during the decades long course of our respective business careers — Randy Bean as an advisor to large companies and a chronicler of the industry, and Ash Gupta as former President for Global Credit Risk and Information Management during a 41-year career at American Express.
Our view is that to retain their leadership positions, traditionally data-rich companies must adapt their data and analytics processes to incorporate the latest techniques, or risk falling behind those companies that embrace Big Data, AI, and machine learning.
