Recently I was working for a CFO of a drinks company who couldn't master anything to do with data or Excel. Problem was, all of his figures were produced in Excel by his staff (who didn't speak English- or at least pretended not to). Obviously, everyone was cheating. But he had to sign off the accounts, or face fines… but if he signed off the wrong accounts, he could face – prison?
So, a little time spent understanding the basics can help you to choose the right vendors, understand the solutions that are necessary and be aware of the risks that you are facing every day.

That's The Analytics I Look At - The Copper & Blue
As he embarks on an offseason with a wad of cash to try and improve the Oilers, Ken Holland's latest comments about pro scouting and analytics do not inspire confidence.
It shouldn't have been a whopper. It was a mailbag segment. Typically, these are pretty tame. This one in particular, was not.
You remember Daniel Nugent-Bowman, the gentleman that Ken Holland kept confusing Ryan Nugent-Hopkins with at the end of year media availability? Right.

How analytics helped Rybakina neutralize Serena at the French Open
Roland Garros 2021 continues to deliver surprise after surprise, especially in the bottom half of the draw, where the lower-ranked players went 4-0 through the Round of 16. Kazakhstan's soft-spoken but big-hitting Elena Rybakina, seeded No.21, tallied the upset of the day, ousting three-time champion Serena Williams 6-3, 7-5.

Mehta's pioneering role in analytics leads him to Panthers front office | NHL.com
Numbers are Sunny Mehta's thing. They've been the common thread through his winding, colorful career as a musician, poker player, author, derivatives trader and hockey analytics professional.
He played hockey through high school, then went to the University of Miami to study music and after graduation, he worked as a professional guitar player in New Orleans.
Even though his career path took several unexpected turns, math was always played in integral role in his work. And playing poker forced him to learn a lot about probability and statistics. He then became more interested in the subject after reading "Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game," by Michael Lewis, which chronicled Major League Baseball's Oakland Athletics and their analytical approach to the game.
