Report Automation for Managers
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers data warehouse concepts and statistical fundamentals 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 self service analytics, data quality management and KPI definition in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Bring self service analytics into line with current good practice, measured against dimensional modelling practice
- Put data quality management on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Review KPI definition and say plainly whether it is working
- Take ownership of scenario modelling rather than escalating it
