What are your analysts' current challenges?

 In our experience the most common frustrations and challenges experienced by analysts are around stakeholder engagement...


"Our stakeholders do not know what they want"
"We have too much work and too little time"
"We are not involved early enough to add value"
"Requests for work are vague"
"People think it's just a press of a button"
"We often end up doing re-work"
"People don't listen to us"
"It feels like we're just churning out reports which no-one reads"

More often than not these frustrations are also shared by the stakeholders, and this can significantly affect an organisation's ability to effectively harness the potential of their analytical teams.

Sophic's workshops aim to arm the analyst with the know-how and practices to build credibility and trust with stakeholders to address these issues and maximise the analysts' potential to influence decisions - a win/win for everyone!
