In this course, you'll learn the basics of data-driven decision-making and get to apply these skills to three real-life examples from the world of finance, marketing, and operations. You’ll also discover how to uncover new insights and opportunities by applying supply and demand, cost and benefit, and risk and rewards frameworks—gaining practical skills to help you thrive in the new data-driven world.
