More often than not, these daily activities create a trail of digitized data that is being stored, mined, and analyzed by firms hoping to create valuable business intelligence. However, much of the promises of such data-driven policies have failed to materialize because managers find it difficult to translate data into actionable strategies. The objective of this program is to fill this gap by providing you with tools and techniques to analyze large databases, use effective data visualization to gauge key metrics, and by instilling a general intuition for data-driven decision making. Philosophy: Extracting useful insights from the vast amount of information involves a combination of analytical skills and intuition. It is both an art and science. This program embraces the principle of learning-by-doing. Statistical tools will range from simple data analysis and visualization, to advanced regression and multivariate statistics. The emphasis is on applications and interpretation of the results for making business decisions such as estimating market potential and forecasting demand, developing optimal pricing/promotional policies, using data mining techniques to identify market segments and develop optimal targeting models. The underlying framework in all these decisions is return on marketing investments for maximizing customer life time value. Approach: We will use a combination of lectures, group exercises, and elaborate case analysis. The program will involve extensive use of Excel, statistical software of your choice, and data visualizations free tools such as Google Charts and Fusion Tables.

This program will develop key steps a leader takes beginning with a clear definition of the customer focus end state, the development of a marketing strategy, and the organization’s design to support the strategy. The program also discusses various change methods contingent on the company’s starting point and the mind-set of its senior management.
