Live online course
This course makes you ready to answer “Do I have a problem” based on data. This module is one out of three modules and can be taken independently or as part of the full program.
This module will make data “talk” to you. You will be able to gain relevant and applicable insights from data – identifying and understanding a problem, drawing the right conclusions and asking the right questions. Additionally, we bring you the tips and tricks for leveraging data as a useful tool instead of a frightening black box.
Managers must be able to identify the most relevant business issues based on data. How do I interpret essential metrics? Where do I need to dig deeper even if high-level metrics suggest everything is okay? Where is a trend that needs addressing? How can I combine several metrics to identify relevant patterns? How do I need to phrase my deep-dive request to the data people to get meaningful additional insights?

Content course – Module A Working data driven
Each of the 3 modules has its own agenda, value and main purpose and can be taken all together or individually when needed. To achieve the full value we recommend to attend all 3 modules over a shorter period of 3-4 months.
Each module consists of input, toolbox company cases and group work. In each group work there will be one of our coaches ready to guide the group of 2-3 participants while working.
Each module stands for itself and can if preferred be taken independently from the other modules and consists of “how to” input, toolboxes, cases work done in small group sessions.
During the group work there will be one of our coaches ready to guide you when needed. Finally, you will work individually on your specific company case with a one-to-one coaching at the end.
The modules are performed as live online courses and are kept short but efficient – to allow it to fit into your working agenda.

Our three modules are based on what clients have evaluated highly in years of conducting research.

The three face-to-face modules delivered by experienced practitioners leverage the personal presence and peer-learning. They provide insights as well as engaging and interactive motivation.
- Future proof: Working data-driven is here to stay – and the chances are, you don’t want to (and can’t) completely change your career. Therefore, upskilling is the best way to be future proof. The three modules described above equip you with the knowledge and the confidence to succeed in the new data-driven world – without confusing and frustrating people with fuzzy buzzwords and unnecessary details.
