Primary Prompt:
Imagine that you are the founder of a start-up. How would you shape the company's
culture, especially in regard to analytics.
Before defining or shape any company’s culture, it is important for management team to identify
a set of desired values and behaviors. As a founder, I will provide some target or so called KPI
for company’s roadmap, so that the future strategy and processes will be aligned based on the
targets. For a start-up, team will meet the issue of resource limitation, thus team should use the
target and KPI to identify the priority and what should focus on different stage.
After the value is defined, we should find a way to measure and analyze it. For example,
company can implement surveys for employees and talent, which can help find out the gaps
between desired and actual performance and collect data for further management analysis.
Also, data about how team behaves on the market and how market reacts to any action taken
by the company should be collected and business should perform certain analysis on this. Start-
up’s success tights closely with the market trend, thus market data can be an important figure
for business to understand the product’s pros and cons, and what next strategy or action
should be. Besides, the habit of paying close attention on market can be useful to build a
continuous developing business culture.
