More about this course
  • Big data and analytics are more than technology and data science problems to be relegated to specialists
  • In fact, the hardest part of engaging analytics is not the data science or the technology
  • The major challenge is first identifying the right business problem to solve, and then determine if analytics can contribute to a solution
  • Direct leadership involvement in analytics is critical to reaching optimal business outcomes
  • This is largely possible when decision-makers get a working knowledge of data science that is grounded in practical application and equipped with leadership-focused insight
