Statistical Analysis 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 report automation and scenario modelling 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 KPI definition, visual encoding choices and forecasting techniques in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Take ownership of KPI definition rather than escalating it, measured against dimensional modelling practice
- Spot where visual encoding choices is failing before it becomes a finding
- Bring forecasting techniques into line with current good practice
- Put pivot table analysis on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
