  • “The Power of Synthesis: Integrating Data Analytics and Human Intuition in Decision-Making Processes”

    Task 1 (300 words)
    In your perspective, what specific strategies or frameworks can firms use to effectively integrate data analytics with human intuition in decision-making processes?
    Task 2 (300 words)
    What pitfalls are envisaged in using data analysis for decision-making?
    Task 3 (300 words)
    With the rapid increase in data volume, its importance in companies is dramatically growing (Potančok, 2019). Marr (2018) reports that daily data production reaches 2.5 quintillion bytes, driven by IoT, smart technologies, and Industry 4.0. Data transitions into information with context, leading to knowledge, as highlighted by Ackoff (1989).
    Moreover, Potančok (2019) highlights that decision-making offers individuals the choice between intuition, data-driven decisions, or a combination of both. These decisions have profound effects on companies and their customer relationships, especially in the digital transformation era. While data is crucial for digital transformation, it’s not the sole factor; organizations must integrate the digital environment into their culture and processes. Dremel et al. (2017) advocate for evidence-based decision-making across organizational functions to enhance performance. Despite the growing importance of data, intuition remains essential in decision-making, and it’s premature to suggest that data will entirely replace human intuition (Potančok, 2019).
    Although, data analytics is based on multiple sets of data collected, according to one perspective, humans should only deviate from an algorithmic recommendation when they possess new or distinct information compared to what the algorithm has processed (Kahneman et al., 2021). In addition, instead of relying on a single optimal algorithm, an alternative approach involves incorporating input from multiple algorithms, each based on different assumptions and datasets (Page, 2018). This strategy views multiple algorithms as complementing each other. Ensembles of models are akin to leveraging diverse groups for problem-solving (Phillips, 2014), fostering hybrid decisions where humans and algorithms combine their unique strengths.
    In essence, while data analytics provides valuable insights, human intuition adds a nuanced understanding of complex situations and can identify factors that data alone may overlook. Thus, I disagree with the statement that data analytics disregards human intuition in decision-making. Instead, a balanced approach that incorporates both data analytics and human intuition is essential for making informed and effective decisions in today’s complex business environment.
    Discussion Post based on the above discussion

How can a fashion retailer that was once the source for wardrobe staples such as chinos and white t-shirts suddenly lose its marketing edge? Motorola also fell victim to its own success. The company’s Razr cell phone was a huge hit, but Motorola struggled to leverage that success. Google acquired Motorola Mobility but then sold it to Lenovo in 2014. Also, Starbucks former CEO Howard Shultz warned that his company and brand risked becoming commoditized. And, as noted in Case 1-3 of the textbook, some industry observers say that Apple “lost its cool” (Green & Keegan, 2020, p.29). For your initial post, Pick from one of the six companies named above. From a global marketing standpoint, use all the six terms or theories listed above to explain your analysis of their global marketing failure or decline. Throughout your initial post, bold and underline each of the six terms and theories you use to make them easy to identify. Assume you were consulted as the global marketing expert to make recommendations to management of that company. Analyze your top two recommendations. Your initial discussion post should be 250 words. Do not forget to cite your textbook and any other sources used to support your ideas, including visual sources.

  • “Expanding Market Reach: Leveraging Product Range and Brand Reputation for Growth”

    working on a paper. only required to write two pages
    Choose from the options you proposed in your TOWS to formulate a plan of action to make your firm stronger. You should not use all of the options you created, instead focus on 2 or 3 of them, being sure to include those that address the issues you stated in the SFAS as important to deal with. Do more research into the industry: What has been done? What do you think is possible? What would have to be prepared in order for these suggestions to be put into place? Be creative, but also be sure that your plan is based (and supported in citations) in reality, and an extension or a new course of action for the firm. Continuing to do what they are already doing is NOT a new course of action.
