Course Introduction

The impact of big data is being felt in every organization in both positive and negative ways. Steve Lohr, technology reporter at The New York Times and author of the bookData-ism, shares his thoughts on how big data can be utilized to grow a business, improve productivity, and create new products and services.

In this course, Lohr talks about new sources of data that have the potential to transform the way we do business and the way we live our lives. He describes where the data is coming from and how the information from it is being used in product design and decision-making, where analytics and science are replacing gut instincts. He talks about long-term economic and technological implications of big data use by organizations and the rising demand for data scientists and data-literate managers with deep quantitative skills.
