What is Data Literacy for managers
Contents
– Data Literacy is the ability to create, read, understand and interpret data. Every employee within an organization has to deal with this in one way or another. Being aware of this and having a clear understanding of the impact of the employee within the data-driven organization are therefore crucial. This training provides this foundation. At the end of the training, the participant can answer the following questions:
– What is data and what does working data-driven entail?
– What is needed to properly understand data?
– What plays a role in the creation of data? And how do I ensure that this meets business needs?
– How should I interpret data?
– What roles and competencies are involved?
– During the training, the application of what you learn is central and you are challenged to get started with the theory in practical cases.
