Forecasting Techniques for Managers

Data and Business Intelligence|3 days|Classroom or live online

This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers dashboard design and scenario modelling from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because most organisations have more dashboards than decisions that depend on them, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with DAX and calculated measures, KPI definition and data modelling in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

  • Make a decision about DAX and calculated measures without waiting for a specialist, measured against recognised data governance frameworks
  • Bring KPI definition into line with current good practice
  • Take ownership of data modelling rather than escalating it
  • Spot where forecasting techniques is failing before it becomes a finding
