Theory and practice

#1

1. If you were asked to specify, based on your experience, what are
the top 10 data management problems rooted in poor foundational
knowledge, what would those be?

2. What kind of specific instances in practice that exemplify those
problems are sufficiently common, frequent and costly to raise
interest in proper education as a way to solve them. Any chance?

I do a lot of product-specific training in the workplace. Two weeks ago I
was training a roomful of university graduates for one of the big
consultancies. One of the exercises incidentally asked the students to
compute a percentage. I had to explain how.

Faced with that, it hardly seems worth considering your question above.

Ask me again in a few weeks when I've forgotten the experience.
