Data Storytelling for Executives: Tools and Techniques

Data and Business Intelligence|5 days|Classroom or live online

This is a hands-on programme. Delegates spend most of the time working through forecasting techniques and visual encoding choices on live scenarios rather than listening to theory about them. The practical emphasis is deliberate: reporting effort scales badly when the underlying model is wrong, and reading about the method has repeatedly proved insufficient. Delegates leave able to work confidently with self service analytics, spreadsheet controls and data quality management in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

  • Improve self service analytics within their own organisation, measured against recognised data governance frameworks
  • Review spreadsheet controls and say plainly whether it is working
  • Spot where data quality management is failing before it becomes a finding
  • Make a decision about SQL querying without waiting for a specialist
