    Data can shine a light on your most valuable products or services, what your customers care about and any emerging markets you could be entering. Using data to inform decision making at your business is a no-brainer – the biggest challenge is getting into the habit of doing so.

    How will I know if my action plan is working?

    Number of key decisions backed by data

    Data helps leaders to make informed decisions

    Why this metric?

    Checking how many key business decisions have been made with data in mind will tell you whether you’re factoring in data enough.

    How do I start tracking?

    Reflect on your top-level decision making every three months and be honest about the role data played in the process.
