Analytics Secrets Revealed...

Since I started a few months ago, I have been on a crusade to meet every single one of our wonderful customers, partners and active members of the Oracle Analytics Community.

And the stories have simply blown me away. Beyond the incredible success metrics of companies like the NHS, Baxter’s, Royal Bank of Scotland, An Post, Daimler, Trinity College and many others, I have discovered a group of amazingly passionate leaders who have achieved a level of success that very few had in the analytics world.

Their stories are so compelling and there is so much to be learned from their journeys to analytics success that my team and I wanted to provide you with a personal way to connect with each of these Oracle Analytics heroes.

We wanted you to hear directly from them about the challenges they faced and what success they achieved. And thus, our new community program “Destination Insight” was born.
