📊 Will AI-Powered Decision Intelligence Replace Analytics? 🤔

AI decision intelligence systems autonomously identify patterns and execute decisions, unlike traditional analytics requiring human interpretation.

The most fascinating part? They improve over time, learning from successes and failures to refine their algorithms.

What processes in your org could benefit from AI augmentation?

From L. Y. Prattund's new book "The Decision Intelligence Handbook". The preread is available on Amazon, which contains also the foreword:
1.When this book’s authors first asked me to write this foreword, I answered with a soft “no.”

Although I have often spoken of the need for system change in service of sustainability objectives, and am often told I am a system thinker, it doesn’t feel that way. If you recall Robert Pirsig’s long-ago book, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, he distinguished between “romantics”—people who love riding a Harley until it breaks, then kick it as they stalk off down the road—and “mechanics,” who hunker down and try to fix the machine. I warned Pratt and Malcolm that I am more of a romantic than a mechanic, at a time when we need more mechanics.

Romantics, I believe, will always exist and will often be needed, but true systemic change—whether toward sustainability or simply to adapt to the complexities facing modern enterprises—increasingly needs mechanical talent. And that, bluntly, has never been me.

Undeterred, the authors doubled down, explaining that Id hit on exactly the point of decision intelligence and of this book. Indeed, if we are to effectively galvanize ourselves to meet the level of change and disruption now required, we will need the perspectives of both the mechanic and the creative, working together.

2. economist, the politician, the investor, or the executive. Each inhabits their own island of expertise, protected by bastions of jargon. But nature—and emerging â economic realities—rarely respect such artificial separations.
The second force comes from a new class of cross-disciplinary problems: climate disruption drives migration and conflict; conflict affects the production and distribution of food; food scarcities drive poverty; poverty impacts the wider economy and dents tax yields, and so on, as these dynamics hamper our ability to tackle the climate crisis. Around we go, in complex causal chains, whorls, loops.
None of these problems can be solved in isolation. And such dynamics cascade from the realm of sustainability down to everyday business and policy decisions, whether you're a sweet potato grower or a government official creating a net-zero carbon emissions policy (both examples well covered in this book). Every decision maker now faces an ever more complex and turbulent world.
Throughout my career, I've observed that creative minds like mine help bridge the gaps between our perceptions and emergent realities. We need people who can use lateral thinking to spot these connections, to understand increasingly nested systems, and to locate today's crucial tipping points and tomorrow's leverage points.

4. you will be well-served even if the book hovers on your desk or shelf and you read just a chapter a month. It is dense with ideas, but leavened with exercises that help us see our decisions through new lenses, in ways that can help us all to communicate better with colleagues.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, the authors show us all how to invite a new kind of “colleague” into our thinking, conversations, and work. Decades ago I got a well-known financial-world cartoonist to draw me a picture of a boardroom table, also now featuring a fish in a business suit (symbolizing the natural world), a woman from the Global South (symbolizing the ever-expanding social agenda) and a robot (symbolizing accelerating technological progress). Today, the robots are already here. It’s time to welcome them in and work out what we can do with them that we can’t do without.
