Webinar: Business Analytics Isn't Just About Model Building

Webinar Recording

About the Webinar:

As a business analyst / data analyst / data scientist, it’s easy to think the project is primarily about the model building aspect. Models don’t solve business problems, people do. In this webinar, Eric will focus on how to maximize your impact by focusing less on the models you build and by focusing more on translating those models to definitive business actions. 

Key takeaways for the Audience

1. While the science is fascinating, your promotion and progress in the analytics business world requires impact
2. It is not the models you build but the business actions they translate to that create your impact as a data professional
3. Business actions are not something you can create and focus on alone. They require collaboration and understanding of the business
