I enjoyed this book, even though it wasn’t the best written. One of my key takeaways is that an analytics team should be driving strategy, so they way the team works with stakeholders is crucial. When Daveport provided a list of traits that make for a good leader of an analytics team, I recognized myself in most of them, although I should probably work on cultivating “intense” curiosity. It also seems that while leaders of analytics teams don’t need to be extroverted, they should enjoy talking to everyone and anyone about their analytics problems/questions. I am not quite there, instead enjoying coding up solutions much moire, so I will be sticking to a sole contributor role for now.
