Besides the obvious need for high quality data that can be crunched and yield analytics and insights that can be trusted for use in decision making, those dealing with data – practically everyone – will also need the skills to source, wrangle, process, manage and communicate data analytics.

Sound predictions of demands and trends are no longer luxury items, but a necessity. Executives at all levels have to deal with issues like coping with seasonality, sudden changes in demand levels, price-cutting maneuvers of the competition, strikes, and large swings of the economy, and many more.
