When's the last time you said "I don't know" to a manager?

There's a better way to communicate uncertainty.

On an INFORMS webinar, Evan Wimpey, Director of Analytics at PyMC Labs, made the case for trading "I don't know" for "I'm quantifying the risk." Same honesty, in a language decision makers already speak.

What are other ways you've communicated uncertainty?

A city wants to know which blocks will see more crime next week so it can put officers and outreach workers where they'll do the most good.

When the forecast is wrong, the patrols show up where they aren't needed, preventing them from serving areas that need them most.

Swipe through one use case, run across all seven domains of the INFORMS Analytics Framework (IAF), from the first conversation with community stakeholders to the audit trail years later.

Which domain does your team struggle with the most?

Let the infighting begin!

We asked AI (ha!) what is the difference between various data/analytics/OR disciplines. This is an edited version of what Claude thinks.

Agree? Disagree? Is it more nuanced than this?

What would you tell someone who’s unsure if the CAP-E is worth it?

"Do it.

The certification is worth it, to be sure; but even if I hadn't passed the test, I still would have learned so much from the preparation, not to mention the exposure to the resources and people of INFORMS.

The certification is worth the investment, to be sure; but the value of the knowledge, experience, and relationships is priceless."

You can be fluent in Python and still hand your stakeholders something they can't use.

The skills that close that gap are learnable, testable, and worth proving. That's what CAP is for.
