Analysis Paralysis

Do not become a victim!!

In an era where data is more valuable than gold, why are companies shying away from the analysis and findings from their BA's, Data Analysts and Data Science experts.... "analysis paralysis".

Imagine this.... you have been working independently on analysing and interpreting business data to understand problems, come up with solutions or to make the business run smoother. Imagine then presenting your findinds to your boss or boss's boss to turn around once you have presented your findings and proposed solutions, only to be asked to go away with the same information and see if you can come up with anymore findings?!

Now my opinion is somewhat old fashioned, but it is true "nothing ventured nothing gained"? if a company has invested time, resources and money into you spending days which turn into weeks which turn into months finding a solution to at least try this solution and learn from it?

I would be interested to find out whether you as a manager have experienced "Analysis Paralysis" or have you presented findings and solutions which you have seen go nowhere and sent back to the drawing board by your company.

open for discussions...
