The business set out on a journey to become a more product-led organisation and re-structure into vertical markets supported by 3 horizontal functions, one of which was Product Management driven by data & analytics.
In the process, they discovered four key challenges:
- Lack of Compelling Narrative. Competitors had a better story in the market around the use of data & analytics/AI and there was a need to accelerate this capability.
- Expertise Deficit. There was limited executive level experience to develop the needed Data strategy with the accompanying roadmap and delivery execution.
- Outdated Operating Model. Defining the ongoing operating model and a plan to change the data culture.
- Commercial Vision. Creating a longer term vision for data & analytics articulating the commercial opportunities that should be pursued
