Storytelling with Data for Managers
Data and Business Intelligence|3 days|Classroom or live online
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers storytelling with data and data governance 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 spreadsheet controls, pivot table analysis and dashboard design in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Take ownership of spreadsheet controls rather than escalating it, measured against dimensional modelling practice
- Spot where pivot table analysis is failing before it becomes a finding
- Bring dashboard design into line with current good practice
- Explain data cleaning and preparation to someone who does not do the work
