Give a suit a fish and he's happy for a day. Teach a suit to fish and he'll still be back tomorrow for his fish. Who wants to fish when you can get a code monkey to do it for you.

I was in a regional strategy-esque team for Uber Eats. Eats have a nicely curated data warehouse of core operational data. They also have excellent, free, self-paced SQL training built around that same data (a tailored version of https://academy.vertabelo.com/). So you learn both how SQL works and how your data is structured at the same time. You'd be surprised how many junior-mid level suits are eager to pick this up.
The result is very useful. Some non-technical folk picked this up on the side in just a few weeks. They understood the limitations and caveats needed to use the data well. They needed very limited assistance here-and-there.
It was purely magical how they picked up both the data and the system.
With the exception of a very few competent suits I have known... this is so spot on! Love it! Beautifully put!
