"Big Data: How to Get Corporate Directors to Love It;" Io-Tahoe Conducts Webinar with Leading UK University Researcher on Big Data's Impact on Board-level Decision Making

NEW YORK, Jan. 15, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Companies have access to more Big Data than ever before, providing greater in-depth business insights to help them succeed. But new research, led by Alessandro Merendino, Ph.D., from England's Coventry University, indicates that many corporate directors find themselves struggling to interpret the wealth of information that advanced analytics can present, in order to make the best business decisions.

The research findings from Merendino and his colleagues will be discussed during the latest in the ongoing webinar series covering a wide range of issues pertaining to smart data discovery. The webinar will focus on understanding why some directors at large firms may be reticent to consider the benefits of Big Data; and why in some cases it could even be perceived as a hindrance to their decision making. This webinar will also deliver useful solutions for directors and senior executives to embrace the era of working with advanced analytics.

This webinar series is presented by Io-Tahoe, a pioneer in smart data discovery and artificial intelligence (AI)-driven data catalog products.

Date & Time:        Tuesday, January 22, 2019, 12 noon – 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time
Special Guest:    Alessandro Merendino, Ph.D., Coventry University
Why Attend?    "We are in a new era of big data – and company directors are finding it hard to adapt," Merendino says. "Directors struggle to introduce changes within the shortened timescales created by an ever-changing backdrop of new data and they are under pressure to adapt the way strategic decisions are made."
    Merendino and his team spoke with 20 CEOs, managing directors and other key management figures from large firms throughout the United Kingdom. Their responses will provide you with insights on how to overcome potential objections from corporate boards, enabling them to see the value in Big Data and advanced analytics in their decision making.
You'll Learn:     In this webinar, Dr. Merendino will address these critical issues and more, especially:

• Why corporate directors may be initially reluctant to adopt Big Data initiatives
• Why some believe Big Data may only provide more data, and not enough insight
• Suggestions and practical solutions on how to help corporate directors better understand and adopt the benefits of advanced analytics.
