Any technology still needs to have a strong team behind it
Technology allows you to better express your findings
It shortens the time to present different views and opinions
It doesn’t imbue any knowledge or experience – that comes from you
It helps share, collaborate and present your insights and best practices up and
down the corporate ladder
Provides company knowledge
Provides innovation
Has a vision of what they want to achieve
Pulls in best practices and achievable improvement
Asks the right questions to the right people to uncover opportunities
