In this episode, I provide an overview of data visualization as an effective form of communicating data. We also talk about exploratory vs explanatory visualizations and when providing visualizations can help your audience vs showing them all the data.

We’ll be talking about how to put your audience first when communicating to them, whether it’s through reports, data viz, presentations or whatever other form of communication.

I gave a version of this training to the Phoenix Tableau User Group in Dec 2021 (the training covered more than just this topic) but I think you can benefit from this material as well.

We are going to be talking about data storytelling predictions for the coming 5 years. There are two particular predictions that have stuck out to me and grabbed my interest. So I’ll focus on these two for this episode. As always, I'm curious to hear what you think so give this a listen and message me with your thoughts at [email protected].

In this first episode, I want to share why this show focuses on data communication skills and why you should be honing them to help you with your data career. I also share the light bulb moment I had in graduate school that made me realize the importance of such skills.

I was inspired to start this podcast because you didn’t ask me to. Most people who reached out to me asking if I can teach them how to use data viz software or create a course on the latest data tool everyone is talking about.

It’s precisely because of these requests that I created a show dedicated to communication skills for data people because we obsess over technical skills and do not work enough on these other so-called “soft” skills. So I decided to create this podcast to help you hone these skills.
