Laughlin Consultancy has collaborated with Worldwide Business Research to survey the view of over 100 Data Insight Leaders.

Following on from the success of a report published by WBR in 2016, this survey also provides a comparison with last year’s results and expert commentary on the implications for leaders working in this area.

Our 2017 survey asked these data & analytics leaders, from across eight industry sectors, 13 key questions. Although 40% of answers are from leaders based in the UK, input from other leaders across the USA, France, Spain, Nordics & the DACH region, help confirm the international applicability of lessons learnt.
