@JJM_NZ@sasforums Q6: Exactly! This need/path may be bigger, more important than the opposite in terms of developing a culture of data and analytics. #saschat
@Riaantwit@zafmud@sasforums Agree here. Related to A6: universities play the information role while enterprises have to provide the experience over time to develop new leaders. #saschat
@sasforums A6: We would all agree that higher ed plays a crucial role in training future leaders. The highest performing enterprises when it comes to analytics are HEAVILY investing in that talent, particularly local. Those enterprises that are not, are falling behind. #saschat
@sasforums A5: Our sense is to focus on your weak(er) areas. If you've been trained in quant methods and tech, focus on managerial and business. If you come from managerial/business role, get familiar with the newest statistical methods and tools/tech. #saschat
@sasforums Compared to other functional areas (HR, Marketing, Sales), there is very little research about what skills/behaviors are needed in the emerging leader of analytics. AI, D&A are the future...understanding what type of leader is needed is also crucial. #saschat
@sasforums A1: We increasingly see a difference between analytical leadership and "leaders of analytics." The first applies to non-analytics professionals, while the second applies to the emerging class of (often c-level) leaders of the data, analytics and AI function.
