Yale School of Management and IBM Prepare Students with Analytics Skills for Next Generation of Jobs
0The Yale School of Management Center for Customer Insights and IBM are collaborating on an academic initiative that will provide analytics and training resources to MBA students, helping them develop skills needed to become future business leaders through a "Customer Insight" project-focused class. Social networks and mobile devices have reinvented the way people interact with company brands. It is essential for the upcoming generation of business leaders to possess strong analytics skills to better harness and measure brand and customer opinion, so they can capitalize on new opportunities. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that there will be a 24 percent increase in demand for professionals with management analysis skills over the next 8 years. Helping to fuel this increase is the rising use of business analytics by companies in their efforts to learn more about their customers, including buying habits and preferences.
