Data Quotient ("DQ") is now the new standard for business success (on top of IQ, EQ) and digital transformation is the new business direction for almost every industry. The success of digital transformation calls for a company-wide awareness and upgrade of DQ. This kind of change management can only be achieved through the support of Human Resources. Training has become essential to 'reskill' your employees to become compatible and be able to communicate effectively along the digital front. CPFA allows a company to reskill their team to become big data literate and set a standard of their DQ to ensure business success.
