- Managing today can require good instincts. However, instinct is not enough to manage the huge amounts of available data and the complex variables of the business world.

This intermediate-level course examines statistics as a managerial tool. It also looks at common graphical representations of data and how these can be effective tools to explain situations and support persuasive arguments for a course of action.
