February 2020 Chapter Meeting

The Evolution of Analytical Job Roles

Speaker: Billy Tilson

Tuesday, February 11th

With the rise of Big Data, new roles have emerged. Surprisingly, many companies have not kept up with this evolution. They do not have the right job definitions, training, and organizations to effectively keep up with the increasing demand to spin large, semi-structured, fast-moving data into insight gold. Often, employees get stuck spending most of their time on work that is outside their expertise and passion.

You will identify and understand these issues and provide guidance on how to build analytic teams for the new Big Data world.
