Week 3 Discussion

Gathering and Organizing Your Data

Having identified the types of data you will need, it's time to gather, review, and organize your data. This is a critical step in preparing to demonstrate to your Board of Directors that there is a legitimate demand for a solution to the problem you want to solve or the opportunity you want to explore.

In your post, answer the following questions:

What sources did you use to gather your data, and why did you use these?

What impact will any gaps in your data have on the validity of your analysis? How will you address this?

How should you organize your data so that important patterns, trends and anomalies are clearly visible?

Which analytical method (Descriptive, Predictive, or Prescriptive - see Davenport & Kim pp. 3-5) did you use to assess your data? Why did you choose this method over others?
