Analytics

Decisions, not dashboards

Joshua KwasnyCo-Founder & Managing Partner1 min read

Key takeaway

Design analytics around the decision and its cadence; a dashboard nobody acts on is a cost, not an asset.

Organizations are rich in dashboards and poor in decisions. The two are not the same.

Shared definitions before pretty charts

Most reporting debates are really definition debates. Agree what a metric means, document its lineage, and meetings shift from arguing about numbers to acting on them.

Tie every view to an action

A dashboard should answer "what should we do, and by when?" If a view doesn't change a decision, it is overhead. Decision intelligence means designing for the action, not the artifact.
