TOPIC: Data is Meaningless Without Context
We find ourselves in a “Golden Age” of data. Organizations of every shape and size find themselves awash with data. The scale of the data combined with tools capable of deriving ever-complex responses has fueled the rise and demand for more professionals that know how to navigate this complex landscape. Like a modern-day Sherlock Holmes, these professionals hunt, mine, and search for relevant clues into an organization’s operations to optimize processes and mitigate operational risk.
