Analyst First is a new community, think tank and methodology promoting a people-centric approach to analytics. In the Analyst First tools take second place to the people who perform, manage, request and envision analytics, while analytics is seen as a non-repetitive, exploratory and creative process where the outcome is not known at the start, and only a fraction of efforts are expected to result in success. This is in contrast with a common perception of analytics as IT and process.
Analyst First sees Analytics as an Intelligence activity, in contrast to the common view of Analytics as an IT function.
