Data analysis is becoming a lost art. According to an article in the Journal of Accountancy, the skill is diminishing especially within finance teams. The article references a recent survey report conducted by Robert Half and the Institute of Management Accountants (IMA) that shows that only 46 percent of managers who regarded the ability to identify data trends as an essential skill for success said their teams had such skills.
By enhancing their data analysis abilities, finance professionals can improve their job prospects. Similarly, companies can increase their chances of hiring talented staff by adding data analysis skills training to their recruitment packages.
