    Question

    A financial organization is aiming to reduce operational

    costs by analyzing transactional data to identify inefficiencies. Which of the following roles should a data analyst primarily adopt in this scenario?
    A Data Modeler Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Problem Solver Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Report Generator Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Statistical Consultant Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E System Administrator Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    A data analyst in this context would be acting as a "Problem Solver." This role involves identifying and diagnosing inefficiencies within the transactional data and providing actionable insights to streamline operations. By focusing on problem-solving, the analyst can leverage data-driven methods to highlight cost-saving opportunities and recommend strategies to eliminate bottlenecks. Unlike merely generating reports or performing statistical analysis, problem-solving encompasses identifying patterns and developing insights that directly address the organization's business challenge. Effective problem-solving requires a blend of technical skills, business acumen, and strategic thinking. The other options are incorrect because: • Data Modeler focuses primarily on structuring and organizing data without necessarily addressing operational inefficiencies. • Report Generator implies generating static reports, which is too limited in scope for actively reducing costs. • Statistical Consultant emphasizes advising on statistical methodologies, not specifically solving operational inefficiencies. • System Administrator pertains to maintaining IT systems, not data analysis.
