Discovery is driving governance to new levels and unexplored territories of policies and decisions to balance risks. That said, a conversation on governance cannot be constrained into a few measly sentences, so, I will devote an entire chapter later to this concept and move on for now. 3 DISCOVERY ORGANIZATIONS AS AMBIDEXTROUS BY DESIGN Last of all, I just want to insert a brief tidbit on organizational design for the discovery culture, for those of you interested in such things. A strong case can be made that the discovery culture is one that is ambidextrous by design.

4 FROM THE DATA TO THE DASHBOARD If you want to distill the previous yarn about disruption, transformation, and reinvention in the wake of big data into a single bite-sized takeaway, you can easily say that big data is reshaping how we do business today—and, at least on one level, that is true enough. But, when it comes to customer- and data-centric organizations like those Fantastic Four above, data itself—big or otherwise—is not the only thing that is propelling these companies to greatness. Beyond being just data-centric, or more analytically minded, or even more daring and ready to boldly go where no company (or industry) has gone before, the most data-driven companies are also those that embrace an ethos of data discovery and data visualization.

We can articulate the fundamental difference in BI and discovery in the following way: traditionally, enterprise BI has focused on how to create systems that move information in and around and up and down in the organization, while maintaining its business context. It focuses on keeping that very important context bubble wrapped tightly around the data so that the business consumer does not need to. It is “rely and verify:” a framework wherein the analyst role is embedded within the system and the end user does not have to be a data expert, but just has to be able to rely on the data presented to verify a business need is met.
