Secrets of Data Analytics Leaders - A podcast by Eckerson Group

Categories:

In this episode, we explore an area of data analytics that everyone knows they need to improve but no one knows how to do it. That is data literacy. Data literacy ensures that business people have the skills to accurately interpret data represented in charts, tables, and dashboards, as well as the knowledge to use those tools to gather and analyze data on their own. To guide us through the nuances of data literacy and explain how to implement it in an organization, we invited a data literacy expert to share the secrets of his trade. Kirill Makharinsky is the founder of Enki, a San Francisco-based company that provides data-as-a-second language training services. Kirill is a serial entrepreneur, having previously co-founded ETG, one the largest online B2B travel companies in Europe, and Quid, a leading research and analysis tool.
