Is Your Company Reading Data the Wrong Way?

We live in an age where we have more data than ever. But most
leaders have two strong reactions to new data. Either they rely too
heavily on studies or information to make decisions. Or they
dismiss outright data that could be very relevant. The better way
is learning how to interpret, question, and engage with data and
studies, say Harvard Business School professor Amy Edmondson and
Johns Hopkins Carey Business School professor Michael Luca. They
break down the essential analytical tools to assess and interrogate
data to be able to apply it to business decisions. Edmondson and
Luca are coauthors of the HBR article "Where Data-Driven
Decision-Making Can Go Wrong."
