The Importance of Data Visualization in Analytics

Today I had the pleasure of speaking at the Barclays Enabling Modern Analytics symposium. Nandu Govindankutty of Barclays did an amazing job organizing this event. He runs a charity called MADTA (Making A Difference Through Analytics) and focused this event on senior leaders from Charities and Social Enterprises.

Naturally I wanted to speak about the amazing work that The Data School did on the Connect2Help 211 project for the Tableau Foundation. Nandu also asked me to speak about my experience in data visualization and why I think data visualization is import in analytics.

I was able to record the presentation. You can watch the presentation below, view the slides and some of the visualizations I built during the talk.
