Or what about increasing productivity while having happy employees at the same time? It’s all possible if your organization is structured in a way that allows it to adapt to change. These days, most employees are experiencing burnout. Meanwhile, the power of technology to allow a business to grow is increasing every day. Unfortunately, this is causing an acceleration gap, meaning the difference between the pace of technology and the ability of companies to keep up is getting farther and farther apart. This is why it is so vital your organization adapts to change quickly.Adapting to Change
The COVID-19 pandemic is the most recent example of drastic change that happened nearly overnight. Those companies that were able to pivot made it through, but those that couldn’t, faltered. And let’s face it, most of us don’t like change. We resist it. But this is precisely why organizations need help, specifically when it comes to their data. Data is key. Organizations that utilize the data available are better equipped to adapt to change. To close the acceleration gap, businesses must make informed and strategic decisions. This will help them increase efficiency, cut labor costs, and gain valuable insights for future opportunities. Companies that can adapt to change are more profitable and more competitive. These are the companies that thrive. However, it’s not that simple. There are lots of software programs out there that can deliver data. What organizations really need is a program that can deliver the data and help the end-user interpret the data.Closing the Acceleration Gap
To close the digital acceleration gap and reap the rewards for your organization, you need to collect data and know how to interpret it. When correctly reading the data available to you, your organization will be able to:- Quickly pivot strategies (move from tactics that aren’t working to refocus on the ones that are)
- Reduce uncertainty, which will allow your employees to feel more confident in their work
- Evaluate performance (ROI)
- Operate in real-time
The Practice of Strategic Change
According to a recent Deloitte report, “Human nature makes it difficult to speed up the way individuals change. The way to create Organizational Acceleration is to fine-tune change at the organizational level.” The gist of the report is that change is always happening. That doesn’t just include change from the outside world, but internally. So how your organization deals with change will change too.Correctly Using Analytics
Data and analytics will allow you to see change happening in real-time. When you utilize the right tools, you can make more precise interpretations of the data you have. This can help you decrease the wasted time your employees spend going down one rabbit hole to the next. With proper analytics, your organization can better target the change it needs to close the acceleration gap. Then, as your company flexes its agility muscles, you’ll find it easier to pivot through all the changes life throws (such as a pandemic!).Change Starts at the Top
It may seem that the driving force for change and closing the acceleration gap begins with the employees; after all, they will likely be the ones reporting on what the data is telling them. However, for a company to truly adapt to change, it has to start with those at the top. Organizational leaders must be ready to take that data and run with it. They must accept that they will have to make changes quickly and help those working under them.How Preferred Strategies Can Help
If your company is ready to close the acceleration gap and adapt to change, Preferred Strategies can help. Our technology acceleration partners include Microsoft, Oracle, and Viewpoint, just to name a few. With our QuickLaunch Information Engine, we can interpret your ERP and CRM data, making your organization more efficient and profitable. Our “best in class” reporting and analytics tools help organizations realize the full value of their data within weeks. Start Adapting Today!

For clarity, data analytics refers to modifying raw data into a usable format. But, as any business leader can attest, having easily accessible, insightful data from disparate sources often seems like a pipe dream. James Bradshaw of Ernst & Young states, "To be truly successful, organizational leadership must agree that data is an asset worth investing in. From the boardroom to the C-suite, this focus on data and analytics driving decision making is crucial." So, how do you untangle your data into the meaningful information you need to make informed, strategic business decisions? The answer: with Power BI.Business Intelligence with Power BI
Power BI is Microsoft's unified, scalable platform for self-service and enterprise business intelligence. An AI-powered program, Power BI connects to your various systems, allowing you to model and visualize your information into actionable, data-driven decisions. In other words, your raw data is modified into a usable format that informs effective strategic actions. Most importantly, with Power BI's ease of use, employees at all levels can be empowered to utilize analytics in their reporting, planning, and decision-making processes.One Version of Truth is Critical - Data Validated Across All Sources
To have total confidence in your business decisions, you need data that is validated across all your platforms. Data validation helps to weed out the outliers caused by issues such as manual data entry errors, which can be as high as 4%. Even with a leading analytics tool like Power BI, validating data across multiple sources is essential to be successful. Paring Power BI with a governed data model drives analytic efficiencies throughout the enterprise. Drawing from one version of truth enables a leaner approach to analytics and improves the consistency of information shared throughout your organization.Compelling Visualizations Foster Actionable Insights
Brian Hopkins, VP, Principal Analyst at Forrester shared, "In this emerging world of too much data, what matters most is how you discover and implement digital insight in the fabric of your business." With machine learning, Power BI analyzes information and draws conclusions. This AI forecasting, coupled with the compelling data visualization Power BI provides, enables companies to identify trends and anticipate challenges. Having easily accessible actionable insights means your organization can spot opportunities for improvement and transformation that lead to increased efficiency, reduced labor costs, and greater profitability and competitiveness.Real-Time Solutions Require Actionable Data
Receiving a report on Thursday afternoon that you didn't make a crucial delivery that morning only allows for reactive damage control. If you cannot identify and resolve problems before they happen, there is no strategic decision-making, only strategic apologizing. Having all the information you need at your fingertips in near real-time enables your team to pivot intelligently. Data visualization illuminates potential issues allowing organizations to adapt to fast-changing market conditions, uncertainties, and disruptions.Data Transformation for Profitability and Competitiveness
We are in the decision-making business. If your organization is ready to invest in a true data transformation, our QuickLaunch Information Engine for Power BI will untangle all your data. Don't fall within the 70 to 80 percent of companies whose business intelligence initiatives fail. Preferred Strategies clients’ have a 96% success rate.
In today’s environment, business truly moves at the speed of light. Your access to your data needs to be as well in order to make actionable and timely decisions.

Power BI Consumers
Power BI Goes Green
Late last year, Power BI announced that it would switch its application accent coloring from yellow to teal in order to make it more accessible for users with disabilities. This color coincidentally (or not) also matches the color scheme for the new Fabric platform announced last month that will include Power BI. More on that to come soon but if you have started to see the green Fabric logo in the Power BI Service…this is why.

Subscribe to Personalized Views of Reports with Filters Applied
With the latest updates to the Subscribe feature, you can modify reports to be more relevant to yourself and then subscribe to that view. To do this, choose the Include my changes option in the Subscribe to emails window. This personalized view will include any of the following changes: filters, slicers, personalize visuals, cross-filtering or cross-highlighting, drill down or drill up, and spotlight. Read more

Enhanced Integration Between Power BI and PowerPoint
In past iterations of this presentation/blog we showed you how you can embed Power BI reports into a presentation using the Power BI Add in for PowerPoint. Taking that a step further, you can now embed single visualizations that pertain to your slide. This allows people to easily make their presentations more interactive and informative. To do this simply click the Share option in the visual menu and then paste the provided link into the PBI Add in dialog box. Read more

Power BI Designers
Quick Measure Suggestions (Preview Feature)
Building on the Quick Measures feature that was introduced a few years ago, the Power BI team has introduced natural language query technology into the fold to automatically generate DAX code suggestions to users. This accelerates the learning curve to get started with creating measures in Power BI and is a taste of what’s to come with Copilot generative AI features coming soon. This doesn’t mean that you don’t need to take some DAX classes or validate and test your measures in addition to having a formalized process for introducing these into your company’s centralized data model. Read more

Enhanced Report Authoring with the Optimize Ribbon
With the new Optimize ribbon, report creators can improve both the development process and the consumer process through three new features that were combined with the Performance Analyzer feature. The first is the Pause visuals button which stops Power BI from sending queries while you are making changes to your report. Next up are Optimization Presets. These allow you to apply different settings combinations for Query Reduction, maximum Interactivity, or a custom blend of settings that works best for your needs. Lastly, the new ribbon allows you to add an Apply All Slicers button to a report that will turn off the visual refresh while users are making slicer value selections. These features are particularly useful for users who are working with very large datasets or a Direct Query report and need to optimize the user experience or for scenarios where consumers request many slicers which can slow down report performance.

Improvements to the Small Multiple Visual
The Small Multiple Visual was a great addition to the visualization suite in Power BI but it had a few gaps when released including making it more legible as you scaled the number of multiples. Fortunately, this has been addressed with the ability to unsynchronized the axes and scale each chart individually. This is accomplished by unsharing the y-axes and enabling the scale to fit option. Read more

Create Dynamic Slicers with the New Field Parameter Feature
In the last iteration of this blog/presentation (link to blog), we demonstrated how you can use the Field Parameter feature in PBI to create dynamic visualizations and perform scenario analyses. With the latest update to this feature, you can now create dynamic slicers to allow users to slice by the values of the dimension parameter slicer. To do this you need to copy and paste the dimension parameter slicer and choose the option to show the values of the selected field in the field well. Read more
(click to view larger)
Conditionally Format Visual Elements based on Text/String Fields
This is an exciting update because in the past the standard options only included support for numeric based conditional formatting and in order to accomplish this you had to do some fancy footwork in DAX adding new fields that linked string values to color codes. Now you just have to choose the format by Rules option and select the string field you want to use and list the value in the rule dialog box. Read more
(click to view larger)
Smart Narrative Feature Built in for Visual Summaries
Power BI introduced its Natural Language Generation feature, Smart Narratives, a couple years ago but up until now you had to create a dedicated visual on your canvas to house this written analysis. However with this update you can enable your consumers to get these ML generated features on demand for each visual on your page to expose new insights. To enable for your report, simply click on the visual and then enable the Smart Narrative icon in the Format pane. Read more
(click to view larger)
Update to Page Navigator Visual
No more hiding and unhiding pages in your report! Now you can easily choose with pages to include or not include using the Pages section of the formatting pane. This feature is especially useful if you have a lot of pages in your report. Read more

Enhance Your Visual Containers with New Subtitles, Dividers, Spacing and Padding Settings
In the last iteration of this blog/presentation (link to blog), we demonstrated how you can use the Field Parameter feature in PBI to create dynamic visualizations and perform scenario analyses. With the latest update to this feature, you can now create dynamic slicers to allow users to slice by the values of the dimension parameter slicer. To do this you need to copy and paste the dimension parameter slicer and choose the option to show the values of the selected field in the field well. Read more

Power BI Admins & Content Managers
Paginated Reports Supported for Power BI Pro Workspaces
Before late last year, Paginated Reports were only supported in Premium workspaces but that restriction has been lifted and you can now publish these traditional operational style reports with a Pro license. In addition, there is a new migration tool as part of SQL Server 2022 that will help customers migrate SSRS reports to the Power BI Service which can help free up resources on your SQL server instances. These two updates should allow most companies to start using Paginated Reports alongside there interactive Power BI reports. Read more

Allow Email Subscriptions to be Sent to External Users (Premium Feature)
If content is backed by either a Premium Capacity or Premium Per User license, users can set up subscriptions for external users that are not inside your company and haven’t been invited to your Azure AD B2B directory. You can control which users and security groups have access to this or to disable the feature in the tenant settings section of the Admin Portal. Read more
(click to view larger)
Improved Way to Upload and Manage Power BI and Excel Files
There’s a new way to upload Power BI Excel files in Power BI and it’s much better. The UX has changed and now there is a drop down for Upload in the top of the workspace screen where you can choose to upload a file from Sharepoint or OneDrive for Business as well as Browsing your pc for a local file. The advantage of Sharepoint and OneDrive method is that your saved changes from PBI Desktop are saved automatically about every hour. Read more

Intro to Fabric and Enabling the new Fabric Platform for Your Tenant (Preview Feature)
Fabric is the new end-to-end cloud analytics platform from Microsoft that includes a Data Factory-powered data integration experience, Synapse-powered data engineering, data warehouse, data science, and real-time analytics experiences and business intelligence (BI) with Power BI; all connected to one data lake (OneLake) and delivered as a SaaS solution. Stay tuned for the next iteration of this PBI updates series where we will peel back the different layers of Fabric and discuss their readiness for enterprise analytics as well as provide demonstrations over QuickLaunch data. In the meantime, if you’re a PBI Admin, you can choose to turn on the Fabric platform preview for your tenant, by enabling the new corresponding tenant setting. If you don’t choose to opt out by July 1st, 2023, it will automatically be turned on. If you do opt out before then, it will stay off until you enable it. For customers running Power BI Premium capacities through P SKUs, the new Fabric experiences will not affect your resource usage on your capacity before August 1st, 2023. Starting in June, the Power BI Administrator Role will be renamed the Fabric Administrator to align with changing scope of new platform. Starting in June, the Power BI Free license will be renamed to the Microsoft Fabric (Free) license. Read more

ERP Data: Are You Using It or Just Collecting It?
October 20, 2022
Many companies never touch the majority of the data they collect because it’s locked up deep in their Enterprise Resource Planning Data (ERP). ERP is software your organization can use to manage its day-to-day business activities. These activities include accounting, project management, compliance, procurement, risk management, and supply chain operations. Your ERP can track activities that naturally occur in your business. This software can coordinate the flow between all these activities with the data it collects, often in real-time. Most companies’ ERP collects information that can increase productivity, cut costs, and identify bottlenecks, and they are not utilizing it. Join
