This is the CANA Connection audio re-broadcast of part 3 of our webinar series on Working Virtually. In this session Team CANA will be discussing how they manage working from home with family in the mix.

Over the past few weeks, most organizations have made the switch to working from home, a major transition for many employees.

Last October I was joined by Norman Reitter, chief analytics officer and senior VP of analytics operations at CANA Advisors, to discuss the INFORMS Analytics Maturity Model, and how it is helping organizations of all sizes evaluate their analytics capabilities.

Norm and Dave, who in addition to leading the ACE Subcommittee, completed two rounds of research of analytics models, developed the ACE Coaching curriculum and held the inaugural, pilot ACE Coaching class earlier this spring, and are now working to set up their first organizational assessment and schedule additional coaching classes.
