Strategic Business Intelligence
5 days|Delivered on request
Strategic Business Intelligence looks at this work from the level at which it is resourced and defended. The focus is on SQL querying, data cleaning and preparation and how both connect to what the organisation is actually trying to achieve. This matters at the strategic level because analysts are frequently self taught in the tool and untrained in the reasoning. Delegates leave able to work confidently with dashboard design, spreadsheet controls and statistical fundamentals in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where dashboard design is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against established visualisation principles
- Review spreadsheet controls and say plainly whether it is working
- Take ownership of statistical fundamentals rather than escalating it
- Explain storytelling with data to someone who does not do the work
