Overview:
Effective Data Visualization has become the one competency that will set apart successful organizations and professionals. But to be effective we need to grasp the basic principles of effective data visualization and know the right tool to use each situation.
The session will cover the basics of those tools, techniques for telling a compelling story, guidelines for the choice of the way to illustrate that story, and skills in presenting the data. In additions you'll see how those tools, techniques, concepts, and approaches lead to better problem solving, decision-making, and planning.
Why you should Attend:
Being able to explain the implications of the data we have available to us is becoming the key differentiator in our business, professional, and personal success. Painting a clear picture of 'where we are', 'why we’re here', 'where we need go' or 'what we need to make happen' are vital to staying ahead of the curve.
Being able to use to data visualizations for problem solving, decision-making, and planning sets apart those individuals and organizations who are on the cutting-edge from those who will likely be left behind as the pace, volume and variety of data sources continues to increase at a frenetic pace.
While there are a growing number of data visualization tools available, most users of these tools still miss the mark. They’ve confused the use of sophisticated tool with the ability to use the tool to tell a compelling story that provides clear guidance and direction.
