Analytic Super Power Skills: What's in your Utility Belt? - with Dr. Colleen McCue, PhD

Project Geospatial - En podkast av Adam Simmons

Kategorier:

Meaningful, scalable, and sustainable analytic capacity requires more than math. Advanced analytics to include AI and ML will not mitigate erroneous assumptions, skewed samples, faulty logic, or cognitive bias. Rather, they deliver it at scale, particularly with opaque methods. Traditional “soft skills” like critical thinking, ethics, and problem-solving are emerging as key differentiators between organizations simply chasing the hype of advanced analytics and those realizing the promise in support of novel insight, innovative solutions, and data-informed anticipation and influence. Perhaps, as a result, these so-called “soft skills” are being rebranded as the new “power skills” for the analytics professional. Given their importance to translating data science aspiration into a real, measurable competitive advantage, however, we may want to consider extending the argument and label these as analytic “superpowers” that the successful analytics professional will actively pursue and add to their “utility belt” as another important step in their ongoing professional development and associated maturation of the field.  Join Adam and Darryl as they discuss all of these interesting areas of analytic thinking with Dr. Colleen McCue, PhD.
