Unlock Business Growth with ISB Applied Business Analytics: Harness the Power of Data Analytics for Success

Businesses today generate tremendous amounts of data that need analysis to aid in strategic decision-making. Since decision-making is a subjective process, it is liable to have biases and errors. Data-backed decisions help create tactical plans that support the organisation’s efficient operation and growth. Naturally, enterprises across the globe are shifting towards a data-first approach. As per Gartner, 70% of Organizations will shift their focus from big to small and wide data by 2025.1

Business analytics, the use of technologies for solving business problems using data analysis, is helping firms with everything from personalising a customer's experience to identifying and mitigating potential risks to their business. Logistics companies use business analytics to determine the best shipping routes, track goods' delivery, and get approximate delivery times. Manufacturers identify bottlenecks and production delays in supply chains by employing business analytics.

HR managers use previous employment data to determine the retention rate for the employee, reasons for drops, and find the right candidate for a position. Data analytics allows finance firms to scrutinise key metrics and detect fraud in revenue turnover. OTT giants achieve customer retention and acquisition through personalising recommendations from analysis of user data on searches, ratings, rewatched programs, and so on.

Discerning such problems and finding solutions that achieve measurable results requires an analytical eye to interpret data by identifying patterns, trends, and relationships. This has made business analytics skills indispensable for enterprises. Such a skill can be effectively developed from programmes like Applied Business Analytics from ISB Executive Education.

However, for most business professionals, the ability to interpret and present data from multiple sources isn’t common knowledge. There is a dearth of qualified professionals who can harness data insights and make informed business decisions.

Hence, firms are willing to compensate equally well for executives with business analytics skills. Michael Page’s 2021 India Talent Trends report2 suggests that data science professionals with 3-10 years of experience can secure annual salaries within the range of Rs 25-65 lakh, while those with more experience can expect pay-packages upwards of Rs 1 crore. Additionally, data science will generate 11.5 million jobs globally by 2026.

Be the right fit with the right skill.
