As a BI Practitioner
I want to understand what AgileBI processes are
So that I know what processes to implement (and what processes not to)

TDWI Putting the BI into BA and the 3 e’s

As I have blogged before I am a great fan of classifying what we deliver as a company by the 3 e's of Expertise, Experience and Efficiency. For me its a very simple way to focus a discussion on whether the thing we are taking to market will be "cheaper & faster",...
