On this podcast, I put a huge emphasis on data analysis; in your book, you do not talk much about using data as a source of your insights. It seems to me your success has been more instinctual, that you just have a knack for seeing where the future is going and taking your companies in the right direction; is that a fair assessment? No, I think data is an incredibly important part of it because you have to have information that feeds what that vision should be.
Steve Levitt, the host of 'People I (Mostly) Admire', discusses Larry Miller's book, suggesting it lacks a focus on data analysis. This leads to a conversation about Larry's intuitive approach to business and how he navigates his companies toward success.
