2 年I often use car analogies when taking about models because of the engine concept. I'm going to add this one to my list. I often ask people if they would pick someone off a street corner to fly them in a plane, this is what many do with some of their most critical models.

2 年I'm only half-way through listening to this fantastic interview by Paul Barnhurst with Ian Schnoor, CFA, CFM and I'm finding myself nodding furiously - especially this bit: "People have this idea of a modeller who sits in a corner all day long working on spreadsheets but in fact a good modeller is spending half their time at most on Excel and the rest of it requires people skills; asking questions, collecting data, pushing back, challenging, presenting, collecting feedback, listening. It’s multidisciplinary." I couldn't agree more!
