Most firms invest time and dollars into data analytics that identify what has already happened and what might happen in the future, but this is not enough to drive success. In order to take full advantage of their data analytics, executives must know how to transform data insights into optimal, executable actions that are evaluated by their impact on key performance metrics, leading to better decision making.

This course teaches participants to harness the full potential of large quantities of data to make more informed decisions at all levels of their organizations. Participants will learn about modern decision models and machine learning tools. Through application of these tools, executives will examine data, recommend a range of actions and evaluate each action’s impact on targeted performance metrics. This course provides hands-on experience working with different models--including optimization modeling, uncertainty modeling and risk prediction--and emphasizes their application in finance, marketing and operations functions across industries.
