Episode notes

The digital analytic association of which Michael has been apart for many years is having an executive leadership forum coming up in April. If you are an executive leader and you want to talk to other executives about simulations specifically I suggest you go and attend that. It looks like it'll be a very good event to just you know think through some and talk to other leaders in different places in different spaces about analytics challenges and solutions so all right well this has been awesome and we really love to hear from our listeners so reach out to us on either LinkedIn or the measure slack group or Twitter and we'd love to hearing from you.

When it comes to simulation, we're all really asking the same question: are we living in one? Alas! We did not tackle that on this episode. Instead, with Julie Hoyer as a guest co-host while Moe is on leave, we were joined by Frances Sneddon, the CTO of Simul8, to dig into some of the nuts and bolts of simulation as a tool for improving processes. It turns out that effectively putting simulations to use means focusing on some of the same foundational aspects of effectively using analytics, data science, or experimentation: clearly defining the problem, tapping into the domain experts to actually understand the process or scenario of focus, and applying some level of "art" to complement the science of the work!
