“All planning is backward planning. You start with a goal and work out how you’re going to get there.”

After choosing how to apply your ML, your next step is to get approval from stakeholders with decision-making power at your company. Focus on selling the gains ML can help your team make instead of overly fixating on the “cool technology” you’ll be using.
