With the decentralization of application development as users perform their own analysis on data sets and automate spreadsheet processing without the involvement of IT, governance must be revisited to maintain process control in the new environment.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn this book, emergent technologies that have given rise to data analytics and which form the evolving backdrop for digital transformation are introduced and explained, and prominent data analytics tools and capabilities will be demonstrated based on real world scenarios. The authors will provide a much-needed process discovery methodology describing how to survey the processing landscape to identify opportunities to deploy these capabilities. Perhaps most importantly, the authors will digest the mature existing data governance, IT governance, and model governance frameworks, but demonstrate that they do not comprehensively cover the full suite of data analytics builds, leaving a considerable governance gap.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book is meant to fill the gap and provide the reader with a fit-for-purpose and actionable governance framework to protect the value created by analytics deployment at scale. Project governance, investment governance, and risk governance precepts will be woven together to equip managers to structure the inevitable chaos that can result as end-users take matters into their own hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface ix\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments xiii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbout the Authors xv\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1 Setting the Stage 9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 2 Emerging AI and Data Analytics Tooling and Disciplines 25\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 3 Why Governance Is Essential and the Self-Service Data Analytics Governance Gap 51\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 4 Self-Service Data Analytics Project Governance 89\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 5 Self-Service Data Analytics Risk Governance 139\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 6 Self-Service Data Analytics Capabilities in Action with Alteryx 179\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 7 Process Discovery: Identify Opportunities, Evaluate Feasibility, and Prioritize 221\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 8 Opportunity Capture and Heatmaps 269\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGlossary 307\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 317 \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Business \u0026amp; management [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Business \u0026amp; management\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Business%20\u0026amp;%20management%20%5BKJ%5D%22\"\u003eKJ\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52430938571032,"sku":"9781119773290","price":26.85,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781119773290.jpg?v=1784765795","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/self-service-data-analytics-and-governance-for-managers-hardback-9781119773290","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
