Case 5.1: Making Decisions Using Machine Learning at Lufthansa
This case focuses on the adoption of machine learning to drive decision making at Lufthansa. The company is at the forefront of utilizing big data to analyze customer interactions and drive faster decision making. This case allows you to connect these cutting-edge practices to the seemingly soft-science of decision making and see the immediate impact on employees and customers alike. A variety of interactions are tracked in real time and artificial intelligence can compare past interactions with what is happening in the current moment. For example, this enables quick response time for customer facing Lufthansa employees, ultimately driving customer satisfaction and employee confidence.
