The Project Management Problem Nobody Talks About... | Gary Sutton | DSH #2013

What if some of the biggest beliefs in basketball are not actually supported by the data? In this Digital Social Hour Episode, Sean Kelly sits down with Gary Sutton, a business intelligence and analytics leader, data science author, and statistics expert, to talk about NBA analytics, the draft, tanking, salary caps, home-court advantage, gambling lines, AI, and why bad project management ruins so many companies.
