- 3. “Visualizing information is a form of knowledge compression. It's a way of squeezing an enormous amount of information into a small space.” - David McCandless “The biggest value is achieved when you deliver the most valuable, actionable and trusted information to the right audience in a format that supports the decision making process” - Angel Garcia
- 4. Delivery of Valuable Information The best “information value chain” adds the best value at the lowest cost along each “link” that ultimately is applied to inform decisions. Data is entered or collected… then cleaned, classified, related to other data… to create, organize, integrate, and deliver information…

- The biggest value is achieved when you deliver the most valuable, actionable and trusted informationto the right audience in a format that supports the decision making processValuable information: (Related to information value chain)Data is an object and information is a relationship between data, and knowledge is the application of information.:“Data” - Data is essentially an object. Standalone it's useless. Take the name of the hotel for example - “Half Moon Bay” is data which doesn’t tell you much.“Information” – however, when you associate “Half Moon Bay” with “Innovation Forum” or link it to your LinkedIn profile, it turns into information. You create relationships between different types of data “Knowledge” – apply the information to a scenario. Greatest value is in how uniquely you can apply it to create competitive advantage
- The biggest value is achieved when you deliver the most valuable, actionable and trusted informationto the right audience in a format that supports the decision making processActionable information: (Related to presentation)The information needs to be relevant to the audience as to facilitate and enable decision makingThe sign on the left will probably make you stop in the highway or keep going without knowing where you need to go.Signs on most airports on the other hand are set up in a way that allows passengers to make decisions about the direction they want to take without having to stop
- The biggest value is achieved when you deliver the most valuable, actionable and trustedinformationto the right audience in a format that supports the decision making processTrusted Information has the properties of:Authority: it is up-to-date and recognized as the reference copy of the relevant information.Authenticity: it is what it says it is and can be linked back to its source.Reliability: it can be trusted as a full and accurate representation of the relevant facts, transaction or business process.Integrity: it is complete, unaltered and preserves context and chain of custody.
- So what happens when there is data overload?Cleaning/harmonizing data is a large effort at firms today. Currently firms are overcoming by applying manual efforts:Firms are currently tackling the issue of data acquisition, manipulation and concordance in a very manual way. That has to change… We’re seeing a new trend toward automating the data concordance.
