Understanding the Impact of Analytics Work
Analytics professionals often underestimate the broader impact of their work within an organization. It's essential to explore and articulate how specific analytical tasks contribute to significant business outcomes, such as improving patient care in healthcare settings. For example, an analyst who successfully obtained accurate physician email addresses realized that this work was crucial for sending vital performance metrics, ultimately leading to reduced C-section rates and improved patient outcomes. By continuously asking 'why' these tasks matter, analytics professionals can better appreciate their role in driving success and feel more valued in their positions.
