Exco business case
Approve a people decision system that starts with the questions leadership already needs to answer.
This page gives Exco the approval case for DataWiz. It does not assume poor data or prescribe a wider platform programme.
THE APPROVAL DECISION
Start DataWiz as the first-year people analytics foundation.
The issue
The immediate issue is not the absence of data. It is the absence of a shared, action-ready view when leadership needs to compare evidence, assign ownership and review progress. Current inputs, including a manual talent map and spreadsheet-led processes, are useful starting points but do not yet provide that common fact base.
The response
DataWiz combines a structured DataHub data layer, defined decision views and Peopletree-managed setup, enablement and review. It is designed around the questions HR and Exco need to answer, not a generic dashboard catalogue.
The value case
Exco gains a common fact base for workforce and leadership issues, a visible basis for action ownership, and a repeatable review rhythm. HR gains a managed route from existing information to decision-ready evidence. The first proof of value is a better executive decision conversation, not dashboard usage alone.
The decision requested
Approve DataWiz and schedule a practical start-up session to confirm the executive sponsor, data owner, priority questions, initial data sources and mobilisation plan. The commercial basis is contained in the accompanying DataWiz service guide.
How Exco can test value in the first year
At each review, ask three questions: are the agreed management views being used, are they improving the quality and speed of leadership conversations, and what is the next highest-value question to add or refine? This creates an adoption test rather than a promise of an unmeasured return.
