Where do you see the boundary between analytics and business in your view?

The analytics zone ends where the collection, processing, and interpretation of data for understanding the current state and identifying problems conclude. An analyst is responsible for formalizing requirements, modeling processes, identifying bottlenecks, and preparing recommendations based on data.

The business zone begins with decision-making and actions based on these recommendations. This includes strategic planning, setting goals, resource allocation, and change management. Business functions are focused on achieving specific results and creating value.

The boundary between analytics and business is often blurred and depends on the organization, but the key difference is that the analyst provides information and options, while the business makes decisions and implements them.
