Applied charts and dashboards - Session 5 - Key charts



Applied charts and dashboards - Key charts forms the fifth part of a six course series that discusses the merits of relating key business narratives visually.

Many charts are easy to add and play with. Let’s ignore those. Here, we consider other key charts that are worth considering, but harder to construct.


  • Tornado charts and Data Tables
  • Waterfall charts – worth reconsidering
  • Bullet / multiple bullet charts
  • Broken charts
  • Conditional charts
  • Legend tricks

The 'Applied charts and dashboards' series will help fine tune your interactive charting / dashboarding skills and hone your reporting techniques and hone your reporting techniques. Understand the importance of colour, dashboard positioning, formats, styles and know which visual to use when, how and why. A mix of supporting theory, combined with many hands-on illustrative examples, used to work through concurrently or afterwards.

You can find more information about the other five sessions in the 'Agenda' tab.
