HOW TO MAKE A DECISION MAKER HAPPY
Antje Christensen, PhD, Project Director, Novo Nordisk, Denmark, and 2015 ENBIS Best Manager Award Winner
Abstract:
What do decision makers want from statisticians? What do I want from Stina or David, when I ask them for an analysis? We will have a glimpse into the dreams and headaches of managers, look at a few examples of statistical analyses from the manager’s side, and put them into a context of decision theory.
