A part of the Ask Me Anything interactive series, this webinar aims to connect learners and professionals with program alumni to help resolve queries and explore the learning journey.
Russ was able to apply the skills he learnt from the PGP-AIML to develop a successful product for the healthcare industry. “Even with all the consultative and analytical skills I’ve employed over the years, there was nothing in my toolbox that enabled me to go out and do what I am able to do now (with the PGP in DSBA).” As a consultant, he is always looking to analyze the situation and see if he can make predeterminations based on the information that he has. The data-based insights and findings he was able to learn from the program are very valuable to him for his career growth and professional efficiency.
