The Data School has been paramount to our success at JLL. It has allowed us to bring in highly skilled Tableau and Alteryx consultants. It saves considerable time trying to recruit contractors as I know their skills and training are to the highest standard. Over the past 5 years my team has developed analytical insights which have generated multi million dollar savings of which a considerable amount can be attributed to the Data School consultants we have had working on projects.

Measure and Dimension Switches in Tableau
Creating dynamically changing charts is a valuable way to allow a user to have a greater degree of control over a dashboard, allowing them to choose what dimension and measures they can use. This is done by creating a parameter to select what you want to show

Reduce time to insight with chart formatting
One of the main goals of data visualization is reducing time to insight. A cleaner look helps the viewer focus on what the charts are showing and avoids unnecessary cognitive load. These quick formatting adjustments will give your chart a more impactful look. Sort First, always sort your charts
