What is a data-driven culture? Correct answer-A data-driven culture uses data-driven
decision making
Examples of Google using data and analytics? Correct answer-At Google. decisions are
based on data, analytics and scientific experimentation.
Tried to answer the question of: Do managers matter?Determine the data to use (see what's
available and what might be needed) • Performance reviews (top-down) and employee surveys
(bottom-up) of managers • Looking for variability: Top and bottom quartiles • Analyze the data
using statistical methods
The abundance of data, and its implications and the potential benefits from analytics for
businesses? Correct answer-Big Data - The sheer volume of data
• Increased efficiency • Improved operations • Enhanced customer retention
Purpose and usefulness of Tableau and data visualization in general? Correct answer-
Data visualization is not a personal preference, to be done "just in case some people are more
visual." It is a necessity! • The previous slide is a classic example of how some insights can only
be found through visualization. Remember the picture superiority effect: pictures are retained
at much higher rates than words.A good visualization reduces the time to insight.
