MIT Professional Education's Data Leadership course has changed my perspective and I think it impacted my way of thinking. First of all to understand why data plays a vital role in order to build a data-driven company and why it's super important in order to collaborate with other partners. Although I run a tech company I now know this course was much needed. Now I can ask many questions to my tech team and build governance around it. Also as a chief digital officer, I can figure out which data can potentially give me more insights. Being a not technical person, I can now sense what sort of technology and what sort of data we need. This is something I have been learning but never felt as confident as I am feeling now. It has been an amazing learning experience.
