About this title

Synopsis

A user-friendly guide designed to help every manager to cope with the growing volume of numerical data that is inevitably generated by the spread of information technology in the modern workplace. Even for those with limited mathematical knowledge, the book provides the essential statistical grounding to enable them to handle, interpret and communicate the information to others. The new edition has been fully updated to take account of the IT developments that today facilitate the transfer of statistics, with a complete chapter now devoted to guiding readers through interaction between statistical data and the PC. It provides numerous examples and case studies and comes with a disk containing worksheets and relevant data. Particularly useful to those studying for an MBA or CIMA professional qualification, the book will give all managers a new insight into the importance and relevance of statistical sources and applications while providing the practical knowledge they need in order to collect, analyse, present and forecast from statistical information.
