Hi! My name is Krishna Rupanagunta. A big part of this blog is devoted to the art and science of decision making: from how to transform problem solving in Enterprises to the massive opportunity that all things data presents in today’s business environment. I have always been in the problem solving space: from optimization and simulation all the way to the current AI/ML explosion. Here’s my professional journey: http://www.linkedin.com/in/krishna-rupanagunta
My other (real?) passion is to explore the endlessly fascinating complexities of the human experience at the confluence of Technology, Economics, and Psychology: what that means to how we as individuals and societies make choices, big and small. I will share my reading list and whenever I can, write up my review of the book as well. And if you are up for a book discussion, you can always reach out to me.
I would love to hear from you – feel free to leave a review/comments on my posts, and if you do want to go beyond that, my email: rsrikrishna1@gmail.com.

The bright Data Scientist in your team has spent several intense days with a problem statement and comes to you with a bunch of Analysis and charts. She is all excited with her work – and your first question, ‘Where are the insights?’ I find some managers use this almost reflexively as a way to… Continue Reading →
#55: Problem Solving – working with Biases
Ludwig Wittgenstein was one of the legions of philosophers (lesser known, which is a travesty) from early 20th century. He is best known for language games – one of the questions that he posed: ‘Are you using a ruler to measure the table or the table to measure the ruler?’ This is more than just… Continue Reading →
