The language of analytics is very appealing to our fact-based culture, yet some metrics are simply not to be counted on. Slick infographics, quick summaries in the news and even company reports often contain phony data, bogus statistics and just plain bad math, yet can be hard to catch.
In this session, we'll identify tripwires such as built-in bias, non-random samples and mistaken averages so you can better interpret and judge the validity of analytics.
Be prepared! Learn how to evaluate data with a critical eye.
