What every product manager needs to know about data science (ProductCamp Bost...ProductCamp Boston
Product management and data science work in close partnership at many of the highest performing organizations, which use analytics to develop better products, drive customer acquisition and retention, and create additional revenue streams. Not all organizations have the resources or desire to build an internal data science competency, but all can benefit from some degree of analytical orientation. When armed with basic quantitative literacy, product managers are often among the best positioned individuals in their organizations to recognize and build strong business cases around data related opportunities worth pursuing.
This presentation covers, through practical case studies, the information that all product managers should know about data science. Attendees will leave better able to recognize data related opportunities, understand the potential benefits and risks, build business cases for analytics, and learn more.

With data analysis showing up in domains as varied as baseball, evidence-based medicine, predicting recidivism and child support lapses, judging wine quality, credit scoring, supermarket scanner data analysis, and “genius” recommendation engines, “business analytics” is part of the zeitgeist. This is a good moment for actuaries to remember that their discipline is arguably the first – and a quarter of a millennium old – example of business analytics at work. Today, the widespread availability of sophisticated open-source statistical computing and data visualization environments provides the actuarial profession with an unprecedented opportunity to deepen its expertise as well as broaden its horizons, living up to its potential as a profession of creative and flexible data scientists.
This session will include an overview of the R statistical computing environment as well as a sequence of brief case studies of actuarial analyses in R. Case studies will include examples from loss distribution analysis, ratemaking, loss reserving, and predictive modeling.
Ashwini Bakshi: Powering the Project Economy - and Building a Net Zero WorldPMIUKChapter
The United Nations recently released a report warning of catastrophe if the world doesn’t soon reverse course on carbon emissions, calling this moment a “Code Red for Humanity.” But it’s no small task to re-imagine how every facet of our society is powered – and it will take project managers and change makers to lead the transformation that our world urgently needs.
We will welcome Ashwini Bakshi, Regional Managing Director at PMI. Ashwini will share his unique insights on the world's increasingly disruptive shift toward projectization and new ways of working across all sectors and geographic regions. Ashwini will highlight the long-term global climate trends profoundly transforming the future of work itself.
These paradigm shifts are placing marked pressure on organizations and governments to ensure their relevance and operate with dramatically hyper-agile approaches. As a result, professionals around the world also need to upgrade their own capabilities and develop the right mix of technical and “power skills” to effectively lead teams and turn ideas into reality.
Join us as Ashwini shares engaging stories and actionable lessons on how organizations and individuals alike can prepare to take on the globe’s most urgent challenge.

This presentation covers the 6 steps we (DIgJourney) use in the process of creating a SOLID* transformation strategy.
*Strategy based on empowering the Organization through Leadership, Innovation and Digital maturity.
Companies are no longer the authority on their business, marketplace and brand—consumers are. That’s why listening to the online conversation to hear what consumers are saying is the new key to success for disruptive innovations, successful product launches, brand positioning and more.
Social analytics can help your organization find real-time insights and adopt a new process for delivering innovative products that closely match consumer needs and therefore gain wider acceptance much more quickly.
Key Takeaways
Listen to Malcolm and learn:
What fundamental changes organizations must make to deal with the cultural shift that has transferred power to consumers
How social listening makes possible the real-time marketing that consumers now expect
Real-world case studies about the process of using social insights to drive product development focused on clearly identified consumer needs
The search for new business ideas and new business models is hit-or-miss in most corporations
When good ideas do emerge, they’re often doomed because the company is organized to support one way of doing business and doesn’t have the processes or metrics to support a new one.
We are social creatures and we crave social interaction. This presentation from SPSNYC is about how we build social solutions to our business problems...today.

What Is the Future of Data Sharing? - Consumer Mindsets and the Power of BrandsDavid Rogers
READ an OVERVIEW: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/new-research-what-future-data-sharing-david-rogers
This research study was produced by Columbia Business School’s Center on Global Brand Leadership, in conjunction with the Aimia Institute.
As data becomes an increasingly important asset for any business, access to accurate data from customers—about their interests, behaviors, and identity—is vital to successful, durable relationships. Our research explores how businesses can make data sharing a “win-win” for both companies and the customers they serve.
Co-authors David Rogers and Matthew Quint surveyed attitudes towards sharing data with business in six different industries, talking with 8,000 consumers from the US, UK, Canada, France, and India.
Our surprising findings show that even consumers who are actively protective of their data are often happy to share it for relevant offers and value. The study revealed four distinct “mindsets” that consumers have towards sharing data. And we uncovered clear opportunities for business to use data to add more value to their relationships with consumers.
Columbia Business School's Center on Global Brand Leadership, in conjunction with the Aimia Institute, surveyed over 8000 global consumers to uncover how they perceive
and act on sharing their data with companies.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
