We are in the business of decision intelligence. The value of any data strategy is to enable effective and efficient decision making for your organization. This means your data has to produce clear and relevant insights. Our team is continually learning, developing, and sharing best practices for presenting data in a way that is accessible and understandable. This includes dashboards, visualizations, data marts, embedded and self-service analytics.
Sometimes businesses and organizations have yet to have a positive experience with data and analytics. It can be hard to get “buy-in” for a goal that feels abstract. The reality is that every organization has their own unique challenges and business goals, and the final results of a data strategy initiative will look different for everyone. That said, here is a small gallery of examples we have pulled together to show how a variety of businesses have used modern data and analytics to provide decision-enabling insights to their organizations.
These are examples only, and not real organizations or data. However, they are based on real organizations and past projects. We have anonymized them to protect our clients.
Just "showing data" is usually not enough to produce insights and enable data-driven decision making. People think in terms of stories, and our data needs to present a story relevant to our challenges and objectives.
In this video, Senior Visual Communications Specialist Matt dispels a common misconception when it comes to storytelling with data, and shares the power storytelling can provide your data.
He will teach you some common elements to good storytelling, as well as how to craft a Data Point-of-View and package your data story into a compelling presentation for others.
