-Data Storytelling – Adobe Webinar – we hear statistics, but we feel stories. We are wired for stories – Intellectual guard goes down – Get the right data, what is the story or narrative, what are the visuals that go along with that – Talk the language of our audience – Putting the story in context is very important. – Allow discussion time – Begin with the end in mind – Help our users get the same conclusion as we got (it adds value) – Analogies and Metaphors – Make it personal – characters, trouble or problems, walk through the journey with visuals – visuals help with comparisons. – Going in and finding a golden nugget by themselves. Tell about history and heritage – It helps show direction or illustrate the story – Less process and more results – Data Journalism – Tell the Story! I love it!
