Which way is North

In business it is very important to know which way you are headed. We have some navigation tools to help us in business. Financials, surveys, employee satisfaction, sales reporting and more. However those tools are like a compass. Sure, you know what direction you are going, however you cannot program in where you want to go and have it take you to it. You know like a GPS.

BI (Business Intelligence) is what you use like a GPS. I work in the technology business. With that you would think we would have a real advanced GPS (BI) tool. Unfortunately, many of our tools are elementary when it comes to getting us where we want to go.

Then there is your career. Do you know where you want to go? Do you know what direction it is? Do you have a career GPS? Have you ask?
