BayPA Rising Event: Why your charts aren't landing with leaders (and what to do instead)
About BayPA Rising
This event is hosted by BayPA Rising, BayPA’s program for students and early-career professionals exploring or breaking into people analytics. The program connects emerging practitioners with experienced professionals through practical learning, mentorship, and community.
Event Description
The chart that uncovers an insight is rarely the chart that convinces a leader to act on it. Yet most people analytics professionals are never taught how to design visuals for executive audiences, so we default to the charts we made during analysis (or whatever is in the dashboard). In this session, Morgan Depenbusch breaks down exactly why these charts fall flat with leaders, then shares practical, repeatable techniques for transforming them into leader-ready visuals that make your takeaway impossible to miss.
