Canadian execs cite data overload: SAS

摘要

About half of all senior Canadian business leaders are overwhelmed and underutil-izing their analytical data, according to a new SAS Canada/ Leger Marketing survey. And while the poll results suggest IT shops are only partly to blame for the country-wide problem, IT leaders could play a key role in righting the ship, the company said.rnThe poll, which surveyed 1,022 private and public sector business leaders in March 2010, found that 47 per cent of respondents were overloaded with business information. Public sector business executives were significantly more frustrated (53 per cent) than their private sector counterparts (43 per cent) due to greater organizational politics, SAS Canada said.
