Description
Brief Course Description and Learning Outcomes:
This introductory course is designed to equip managers and experienced professionals with knowledge and tools on how to explore the power of data analytics to provide insights that will drive business and organizational outcomes.
It will have the following learning outcomes:
1. Create value from data to address the real needs of the people that the organizations serve.
Making data-driven decisions requires business analytics. For organizations, it is critical to have true appreciation of and a compelling drive to build and nurture a business that is grounded on data as a strategic asset, on analytical tools and processes as enablers of a data culture, and on the people whose diverse skills will bring about a well-thought-out, ethical strategy for the people it serves.
2. Apply business problem analytics to address real business problems of the organization’s key stakeholders.
It starts with making sense of your business and structuring your organization for today’s challenges. We will (re)set your business direction and (re)articulate your reason for being. We will then delve into the necessary but oftentimes overlooked aspects of business ethics and data ethics, and the notion of analytics serving as a force for social good. With these in place, we will look into how business analytics will create more value for the people you serve.
3. Evolve the business by building a data-driven culture across the organization.
Business analytics will only create value if the entire organization contributes to its success. While the business analytics strategy starts from the top, the analytics journey of an organization should be embraced by all business functions. We will take a look at how the organization can establish their own analytics strategy that supports its overall drive to being data-driven for the people.
