Evgeniy Crup
Production supervisor at «Nornickel»
Our business has grown rapidly, it required and we decided to change management of such business processes as an investment in staff, real estate, our products, and optimization. To do it, we needed to change our managers' mindset and deploy the analytical system to make operational clear decisions quickly.
The training of Alex Kolokolov was extremely helpful for us. It helped me to change my perspective on data processing and visualization. The final result is the most important thing. Firstly, we should think about what we should achieve not how to do it. And Alex helped us to achieve it by giving clear examples and showing how to use different tools.
