Wayne Eckerson has been a thought leader in the business intelligence and analytics field since the early 1990s. He is a noted keynote speaker and blogger, and he consults and conducts workshops on many topics. Wayne is the founder of BI Leadership Forum (www.bileadership.com), a network of business intelligence (BI) directors who meet regularly to exchange ideas about best practices in BI and educate the larger BI community. Wayne is also director of research at TechTarget where he writes a popular weekly blog called Wayne's World of BI that focuses on industry trends and examines best practices in the application of business intelligence. For many years, Wayne served as director of education and research at The Data Warehousing Institute (TDWI) where he oversaw the company's content and training programs and chaired its BI Executive Summit.
Wayne Eckerson has created a unique--and uniquely
valuable--book in "The Secrets of Analytical Leaders." He's pulled
together the insights of seven leading analytics practitioners, and
combined them with his own considerable experience. The result is
an interesting dialogue among some really smart and distinguished
people. I'm not sure which is more interesting--the format or the
content!

Analytics Professors are hard at work molding the world's
future analytical leaders--but the chasm between theoretical
textbook learning and the real world is considerable. Wayne, with
