Data Analysis for Business Decisions

Description

Business data becomes useful when it is tied to a decision. Ten PDF lessons begin with the foundations of business data analysis and data collection and quality, then work through descriptive, diagnostic, predictive and prescriptive analytics.

Later lessons cover data visualisation and dashboard design, building data-driven decision frameworks and real-world case applications. The last lesson looks at building a data culture in your organisation. Exercises appear in six lessons, with templates and a checklist in some PDFs. After reading, you should be able to frame a business question, choose a fitting type of analysis and present the result.

Who it is for: managers and analysts who want to use data in everyday business decisions.
