Assignment: Big Data Analytics and Management Strategy Recommendation Plan- Netflix
You will finalize your presentation to the CEO of your selected organization. As a reminder, you have been hired as a consultant by an organization that is similar to Gap, Inc. (large retail chain) or Netflix (online e-commerce business). The CEO of your selected organization explains that they would like to know if information technology can help the company to increase its competitiveness in their industry, as well as how their competitors leverage big data analytics, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence for strategic advantage and to drive business value.
Utilizing the above scenario, you will continue working on the presentation you began, which should be approximately 4 to 7 slides. In addition to the slide content, you should also include text in the speaker notes section of each slide that would serve as the script you would use to deliver this presentation to a group of people. Your speaker notes should include your rationale and assumptions that pertain to each slide. Note: You may elect to include additional slides as part of an appendix if you have information you might reasonably assume that a CEO or upper management might want. It is not required that you do so.
