Data Scientist- A key pillar for the growth of any Organization

“Without big data analytics, companies are blind and deaf, wandering out onto the web like deer on a freeway.” –Geoffrey Moore

Whenever I hear the term “Data Science”, it always looks like a foreign language to me. So I started exploring about it. As I started learning, I found myself going deep insight another interesting world. There are things which look hard from outside but are actually very soft from inside. It’s up to your view to the stuff. Till the time we don’t find interest on the path, it always looks tough. But as soon we start working on it, the path turns out interesting. This interest serves as a motivation even on the toughest path ahead.

Data Science is no exception. Once you start exploring, you will find yourself enriched with deep knowledge and ready for new challenges at every step. Person working on the data science responsibilities is positioned as Data Scientist. This position is an important pillar in every field. Data Scientist can work in any domain like healthcare, IT, hospitality etc.

Importance of Data Scientists in Business:

- Business Intelligence for Smarter Decisions

- Making Better Product

- Managing Business Efficiently
