This episode dives into the unique problem-solving framework that Mu Sigma employs, emphasizing nonlinear thinking and the construction of "signal engines" and "inquiry engines" to extract insights and pose the right questions. Dhiraj shares examples of how this approach has been applied in various industries, from pharmaceuticals to retail, to develop AI solutions that are at the intersection of technology and practical business use.
