Managing Data Modelling
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers self service analytics and visual encoding choices from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because reporting effort scales badly when the underlying model is wrong, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with spreadsheet controls, storytelling with data and statistical fundamentals in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Put spreadsheet controls on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against established visualisation principles
- Improve storytelling with data within their own organisation
- Spot where statistical fundamentals is failing before it becomes a finding
- Explain forecasting techniques to someone who does not do the work
