Welcome to the Data Science in a Business Context course! Becoming an accomplished and successful Data Scientist today not only requires one to sharpen their technical skills, but also-and more importantly-to be able to respond to a business’ needs in an effective, value-generating way. Being able to extract value from a Machine Learning model is generally what differentiates Data Science from other sciences. Yet Data Scientists focus too little on this point, often adopting an academic, machine learning-oriented approach to solving problems in their daily life. This often results in underperforming Data Science teams, non-captured or belatedly-captured value for the companies they work for, and slow career progression for Data Scientists themselves. In this course I will teach you how to maximise value generation of your Data Science models. I will introduce a few core principles that an effective and productive Data Scientist should keep in mind to perform their job in a value-oriented way, and based on those principle, I will introduce a framework that you can apply in your everyday life when solving Data Science problems in a business context. I will finally show you a case study example to demonstrate how the framework works in practice. What you will learn After the course you will be able to: Understand the current stage of the Data Science field and Data Scientist job Define the characteristics of an effective Data Scientist in a business context Apply a framework to guide the development of a Data Science project in a business- and value-oriented way Derive a link between a machine learning metric and a business metric Increase your productivity and value generation as a Data Scientist Who is this course for Junior and less experienced Data Scientists will quickly learn how to perform their job in a business context, making the impact with the industry world much smoother, and dramatically increasing their probability of success and their productivity Aspiring Data Scientist will understand what is needed from a Data Scientist in a business context, which will prepare them much better to the next interviews Mid-Senior and Senior Data Scientists will learn to adopt a new perspective during the development phase, which can radically improve their productivity level Data Science Mangers can find inspiration and material to have their teams work in a uniform way Requirements Section 1, 2, 3: no requirements! Just your desire of becoming a better, more performing Data Scientist Section 4, 5: basic familiarity with Python, Jupyter notebooks and simple Machine Learning concepts (Linear Regression, Decision Trees, train/test split, cross validation)
