Design Thinking for Data People Training

We get it – as left-brained “data people”, sometimes we’re more focused on the black and white numbers than the craft behind communicating with data. But did you know our most effective work comes when we combine the strengths of logic and creativity? In fact, design has been shown to improve engagement, drive adoption, and make insights more memorable.

That’s why Senior Manager of Brand Strategy, and award-winning information designer, Rafael Simancas, is here to teach you how the powerful medium of design can transform your business dashboards for more effective insights and more valuable analyses.
