Whether you need to build an Excel-based dashboard, perform some serious data analysis, or simply summarize data for a personal project, Pivot Tables are one of the most powerful tools in Excel’s data analysis and Business Intelligence (BI) toolkit.

With just a few clicks of the mouse (and no complicated formulas!) you can quickly and easily build the reports, dashboards and charts that help you to summarize, analyze, interpret and understand your data which in turn helps you to spot trends and get answers to the important questions on which you base your key business decisions.

Whether a recession is coming, is here, or we’re in one doesn’t really matter—because in any of these scenarios, there are certain skills your talent can develop that will help your organization come out on top, no matter what.

Many of these skills center around the Skill of the Future—soft skills, or power skills—and particularly how they are employed in teams.

It turns out that disengagement is largely a solvable problem fundamentally rooted in stress. Stress causes us to shut down, to turn off, to isolate ourselves, and act out irrationally.

However, great managers have the power to turn this around, even in the most challenging situations.

In this webinar HCI will cover the science on creating high performing teams, how leaders can change the game for their team members, and how when properly equipped, those teams can bond together to weather the recession (or fear of it!) and come out stronger on the other side.

In this webinar, participants will learn:

  • Some of the biggest challenges L&D and TD teams face in this rapidly evolving landscape
  •  Ideas on how to create talent that not only survives recessions, but can thrive
  • The role of problem solving in building high performing teams

Machine learning (ML) adoption continues to grow across industries and geographies.

Are the current solutions ready for the challenge? Data science and machine learning (DSML) platforms increasingly encourage greater democratization of ML for different roles, new ideas affect market dynamics, and the significance of data in artificial intelligence (AI) rapidly focuses on DSML platforms.

However, many enterprise expectations of DSML platforms are still unmet, such as those for quality assurance, production performance, and security, but that is changing quickly, as DSML platforms add these capabilities.

In this webinar Aura Popa (LinkedIn profile) Gartner Sr Director Analyst & Peter Krensky  (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Director Analyst look at the emerging trends that D&A leaders need to track.

Plus, find out how DSML is evolving from simple approaches to 3D — a democratized, dynamic, and data-centric discipline.

Discussion Topics:

  • Accelerate time to value and ensure user adoption with a multidisciplinary DSML team
  • Be outcome-oriented, and aim for a minimum viable product
  • Approach data-centric AI as an ongoing, high-priority investment
