Implementing a business intelligence tool is a management business strategy, not an off-the-shelf product.

Implementing information systems in an organization is not a one-time task! It is usually an ongoing process, part of business strategy and an organizational culture that affects all aspects of the business.

Unlike buying an "off-the-shelf product", where you buy a ready-made solution and use it as is, implementing a business intelligence system requires a much more tailored approach, integrated with the organization's needs and goals.

One can draw an analogy between investing in a system and the process of hiring a new employee into the organization.

Both processes require a strategic approach, investment and adaptation over time.

Similar to the stages of implementing a BI system - adapting to the activity, the organizational environment and its needs, scoping, training, building and maintenance, including ongoing adjustments and development throughout the life of the business's development, so it is with the process of hiring an employee.

When an organization hires a new employee, it first looks for someone who fits the organizational culture and its values. After hiring, a new employee needs to go through training to understand the systems, processes and culture. The next stage is integration - joining the team and contributing their knowledge and skills. Later, there is ongoing investment in the employee, in developing, improving and strengthening their skills and in shared growth together with the business.

The picture was taken on the Stav trail.
