Episode 60: Accelerating the evolution of Insight

Transforming Insight Podcast

But by the end of 2020, it was becoming clear that in many organisations, the lockdowns and the disruption they caused to normal living and purchasing behaviour had presented Insight teams with a moment in the spotlight.

For some this was built off the back of having already enjoyed quite a high profile, but for many the uncertainty that senior managers were feeling in 2020 and 2021 elevated the position of the Insight team as never before.

What’s happened since? James is joined by IMA colleague Lisa Dutton to bring us up to date.
