There is a spectrum between basing your strategic and everyday management decisions solely on intuition or all on data. I believe that being fully informed from multiple sources (ie. data, intuition, experience, industry knowledge, benchmarking, research, trade journals, etc.) is vital. The more information you have at your disposal, the better decisions you can make. Part of this is collecting and analyzing your business' transactional and other data, which can tell you a lot about how it has been performing. Forecasting future sales, revenue and expenses can give you an idea of the business' trajectory, IF nothing changes. Combining information sources, such as data analysis with your management experience, research, industry knowledge, etc. provides a more complete picture of the future for you to base your decisions on.
