I really enjoyed the "what I learned" section here.
- Always ask questions: Defining the problem is half the battle - yes, agreed. With a background in lean six sigma, I always make this the first priority. You have to define the problem before you can solve for it.
- Visualize for impact: Sometimes, a column chart can make your findings accessible, and help with quick decisions - yes, double agree! Part of this is to think about your audience and know the stakeholders who will be reviewing your data. What type of chart will empower them to make a quick decision? If the chart you are building is too complex, it is time to go back to the drawing board. Graphs should visualize the data, not over complicate it.
