Managing Data Storytelling for Executives
5 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers SQL querying and data modelling from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because analysts are frequently self taught in the tool and untrained in the reasoning, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with pivot table analysis, scenario modelling and storytelling with data in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Put pivot table analysis on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against established visualisation principles
- Take ownership of scenario modelling rather than escalating it
- Review storytelling with data and say plainly whether it is working
- Improve forecasting techniques within their own organisation
