I still can’t believe what transpired at the recent BI Data Storytelling (BIDS) Accelerator Workshop—simply because we made an exception of letting in a VIP after enrollment had closed. Why? The VIP desperately expressed his need to learn and implement our BI methodology/framework. He was determined to get it done, and the results he shares are amazing. Today’s guest is Ankush D’Souza, Director of BI at Estée Lauder Companies. Without displaying proprietary data, he delivers the “Gorilla BI Strategy.” Also, Ankush describes the four pillars he uses to create a successful BI Strategy, why not having a budget can be a benefit, and tactics and tools to focus on. In this episode, you'll learn: [08:56] New Decade, New Year: Time to think about fiscal end-of-year budgets and your BI Strategy. [25:37] Clarification: Mico and Anshuk describe differences between BIDF and BIDS. [28:25] Gorilla-style BI Strategy: Anshuk is a big believer in sharing knowledge.
