COURSE OVERVIEW
Analytics research published by Aberdeen Group highlighted that data-driven organizations experience a 27% year-over-year increase in revenue, compared to 7-percent for organizations that are not data-driven.
In order for organizations to become data-driven, the support needs to come from the highest levels and penetrate all the way down the organization. Being data-driven is part of an organization's essence and can be developed and supported with proper strategic and organizational implementations. This course provides a deep dive into managerial problem solving, investing in data assets including infrastructure and technical teams, developing and retaining technical teams, and necessary strategic and organizational changes that organizations must implement to become data-driven.
Attendees may use a PC or Mac to access slides and other resources we provide for the course.
This training is often taught together with Data Science for Managers - Applications, Visualizations, and Storytelling in a two-day workshop since both classes complement each other. Attendees usually take this course on the second day.
