You’ve crunched endless rows of data. Tableau created masterful graphics. And you've just delivered what you believe is a topnotch presentation to the executive team.
But the leaders look at the data in confusion and respond with: Huh?
Time to move beyond presentations that leave leaders stuck in a "data haze" and toward meaningful conversations that drive decision-making.
