Your company has more data than ever. But still, most of the reports don’t answer even key business questions: is your performance good or bad, how well are you doing on key metrics, why is this happening, and what should you do about it? Andrej Lapajne, Founder and CEO of Zebra BI, will give you the full rundown on why every company needs to adopt Actionable reporting. So you can give your leadership better (and more understandable) reports to base their decisions on and stay ahead of the competition.

Hear from experts who get it. And more importantly, who’ve seen what adopting the new way of reporting looks like in real-life, along with all the challenges that come with it. From getting the initial stakeholder buy-in to preparing complex data and building reports that people actually use. This is a big-time panel you don’t want to miss.
