Data data everywhere, but not a drop to analyze. Avinash Kaushik, the Digital Marketing Evangelist for Google, co-Founder of Market Motive Inc and author of best selling analytics books shares his thoughts on the difficult process of turning data into insights. How can we tell stories with our data and what is the role of a data analyst in a nonprofit? Avinash shares great frameworks for how to approach the MASSIVE problem of leveraging data in an organization.

There is a story in every data set, some more useful than others. The executive team is more likely to take a nap when presented with “interesting” spreadsheets, but if there is a clear narrative that explains the insight AND the way forward you are doing it right in the eyes of Avinash.

Great conversation with Adam Lowy, the founder of Move For Hunger, an organization that organizes movers to donate the food that people normally waste when they move. Learn how they use offline and online activities to increase the amount of food donated to those in need.
