Communicating with Data

Communicating with data means using data to convey a message, tell a story, or inform decision-making processes.  Doing this successfully, means learning to craft a narrative that highlights key insights and findings and using data to support arguments and convey a compelling story.  Presenting the data should be tailored to the audience’s level of understanding.  Using clean and concise language and avoiding jargon helps your audience more clearly see your supporting arguments.
