Mulyadi Explains Why A Reward Offer From His Favorite Bakery’s App Illustrates the Power of Business Analytics

In a recent Letter to the Editor, “Using Business Analytics To Generate Value,” that appeared in the March 16 issue of The Winchester Star, Shenandoah University Professor of Accounting Martin Mulyadi, Ph.D., explains how a pastry reward from his favorite bakery app perfectly illustrates why business analytics helps organizations to generate value for their customers.

Martin Mulyadi, Ph.D., Professor of Accounting, Shenandoah University School of Business

Dr. Mulyadi teaches a course, “Prescriptive Analytics,” as part of the university’s four-course Business Analytics graduate certificate program.
