The non-obvious skills data scientists should think about
- If you've chosen data science as a profession you're probably quite used to working away at a tough problem alone for hours at a time. It's all part of the job. But we can't complete a whole project alone. We just can't. Data science is about addressing the challenges of organizations with data. So there are highly specific skills that help you thrive in data science that deal with how you interact and work with a variety of your colleagues, whether they be subject matter experts, or in IT, or in senior management. I'm Keith McCormick, and I've been doing these projects for 25 years now. And as I look back on dozens of projects that I've been a part of, there are definitely some lessons that I've learned. And I'd like to share them with you now.
