summary
Companies spend 90% data preparation 10% analysis and the goal is to flip that to about 10% prep 40–50% analysis by building a business-facing Discovery layer (Kimball-like gold layer), embedding data champions in teams, running assessments across people/process/technology, and delivering 3–6 month quick wins that demonstrate value. Use-case-driven Power BI training, assisted adoption and prioritized tactical roadmaps reduce risk (historical 85% BI failure stat) and let IT join after business shows tangible benefits.
