Data Visualisation for Managers
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers data cleaning and preparation and scenario modelling from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because most organisations have more dashboards than decisions that depend on them, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with DAX and calculated measures, dashboard design and pivot table analysis in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where DAX and calculated measures is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against established visualisation principles
- Make a decision about dashboard design without waiting for a specialist
- Put pivot table analysis on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Take ownership of spreadsheet controls rather than escalating it
