As part of the Global Innovators community, Aera will continue to advance education around decision intelligence and its advantages in the era of digital acceleration.
According to the Gartner® 2021 Reengineering the Decision survey, 47% of respondents expect their decisions to become more complex in the next 18 months.
Decision volume and complexity will continue to drive the need for the application of data and analysis to improve the quality of decisions. At the same time, digital technology is evolving core business operations, and enterprises are determining the best balance between teams and automation to effectively respond to changing conditions. As Laluyaux explained, decision intelligence is a critical capability. “Organizations today face an unpredictable future with geopolitical instability, supply shocks, and more. This requires leaders to continually manage change and make exceptions outside of the normal process. Scaling decision making across the enterprise is now a key challenge — there is simply not enough time or people to make the decisions required for responsive performance. Organizations must have the technology and processes to enable accurate decisions at speed and scale,” said Laluyaux.
