092: Using Validated Data

Send us a text

We work with data every day in finance and accounting. The data leads us to insights and relevant information. This is why it’s important that our data is clean AND validated. The way to useable information is to ensure we have good data, but do you know what that means, and can you spot bad data when it shows up in your analysis? Know the data you are working with to ensure it leads you to the correct conclusions in your financial analysis or accounting work. Also, if possible, always try to tell a story with the data.
 
Episode outline:

1. Ensure you have validated data,
2. Data leads to analysis which leads to useable insights,
3. Use leadership with your data analysis to make a difference, and
4. Use data to tell a story.
