Fundamentals of Storytelling with Data
2 days|Delivered on request
Fundamentals of Storytelling with Data is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through KPI definition and data governance without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because reporting effort scales badly when the underlying model is wrong, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with pivot table analysis, visual encoding choices and scenario modelling in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about pivot table analysis without waiting for a specialist, measured against recognised data governance frameworks
- Review visual encoding choices and say plainly whether it is working
- Spot where scenario modelling is failing before it becomes a finding
- Explain self service analytics to someone who does not do the work
