This document discusses the importance of data literacy and having the ability to effectively use data to make decisions. It highlights that successful managers have a comfort with ambiguity, can ask strategic questions based on data, and focus on higher-order goals rather than just past experiences. As the availability of big data grows, the ability to filter relevant insights from data is increasingly important for managers to apply only the most important data points. Training people on avoiding common mistakes in data interpretation can help even distracted data users to overachieve. The document concludes that data-literate managers will always have an advantage.
