Throughout my career, I've found that in-person business networking, beit from stage or mingling, to be one of the most effective ways to generate lasting business impact.

The access-to and immediacy of information could be reducing our youth’s agency for critical thinking.

Gen Z's trust in "financial influencers" has made them one of the most frequent groups to fall for bad financial advice online.

@sasforums #dataliteracy is about engaging on all fronts, at every opportunity, from kindergarten to career, in a continuous #LifelongLearning fashion. #SASChat

[Murray de Villiers @zafmud]

@emily_pressman @sasforums A5: #dataliteracy begins by educating the educators through #LifelongLearning , especially at school-level. #SASChat

[Murray de Villiers @zafmud]

@sasforums A5: A major barrier to #dataliteracy is internet-access and -connectivity, especially in remote developing regions. Also, some guidance on where to start. Funding of #LifelongLearning programs should be both top-down as well as bottom-up. #SASChat

[Murray de Villiers @zafmud]

@sasforums A4: #DataLiteracy courses are available at most public libraries, also at https://t.co/N93UmQYb8S. It is about “just doing it”, learning by doing. #SASChat #LifelongLearning

[Murray de Villiers @zafmud]

@sasforums A3: With #data being “everywhere”, it reaches a very wide range of professions, nearly all. For data to be leveraged by all of these different disciplines/domains/industries, it needs to be presented in ways that makes it consumable, in different ways. #SASChat #LifelongLearning

[Murray de Villiers @zafmud]

@sasforums A2: #dataliteracy enables the democratization of the application of data, including data-driven analytics and AI - it opens the doors to our contemporary existence #SASChat #LifelongLearning

[Murray de Villiers @zafmud]

@sasforums A1: #dataliteracy brings those essential skills necessary to thrive in the modern Fourth Industrial-world #LifelongLearning # #SASChat
