As the volume, velocity and variety of data continue to grow, creating ‘intelligent’ goals, KPIs (key performance indicators), trends and actions that deliver true insight is a challenge. One of the proven and most effective ways to engage users and communicate data is by using the power of visual storytelling. Our BI Dashboard Formula (BIDF) methodology four-part visual storyboard will have you crafting compelling data stories with your users in no time.
Whether you are a BI beginner or veteran, this 100% hands-on, non-technical workshop will teach you how to take any goal, KPI, or metrics and transform them into a compelling written data story! By working in teams with your peers, you will apply the techniques you learned during the short lectures immediately to a real-world use case. The workshop is 20% lecture and 80% hands-on
By attending this intense but fun-filled workshop, you will learn:
• How to change the 'conversation' with your users by focusing on the story, not data
• Your personal BI Maturity IQ score, and what areas need your attention
• How to use the BI Dashboard Formula Methodology visual storyboard to engage your users like never before
• What questions to ask, and what questions NOT to ask your users
• What to do to take your analytics journey to the next level!
Note: The workshop is 20% lecture and 80% hands-on. Wear comfortable shoes as you will be on your feet most of the day and come well rested with an open mind. We are going to be doing a lot of right-brain, creative work!
