Ideapress Publishing DataStory

Although this book was more text-booky than we had imagined. We powered through as a team and learned a lot to implement into our small business team on how to use our data to tell better stories. This helped us review what we are currently doing and implement new steps for data story-telling to motivate partnerships.

One of my mantras, as a leadership and presentation coach -- as well as in my role as an NYU and Columbia leadership professor -- is that numbers, in and of themselves, are completely meaningless. What really matters is: the story that those numbers tell. Too many business people -- especially those in data-driven fields -- tend to drown and to bore their audiences with numbers without providing context...and without effectively targeting their story to their audience. But Nancy Duarte, in her wonderful and indispensable new book, demonstrates why -- and how -- we can all do a more effective job of presenting our data, and inspiring people, by leveraging the power of story. DataStory will join Duarte's other amazing, bestselling books -- especially Slide:ology and Resonate -- not up on my bookshelf as a trophy, but on my desk, within arm's reach at all times, for ready reference.

No blah blah only practical info and that's what we are looking for!

Super recomendable para todo aquel que quiere transmitir el mensaje correcto asertivamente

…für alle, die beruflich Zahlen, Daten und Fakten zu präsentieren haben. Unternehmen geben viel Geld aus, um Daten zu sammeln und zu analysieren. Die eigentliche Kunst besteht allerdings darin, die Erkenntnisse dahinter verständlich kommunizieren. Nancy Duartes neustes Buch DataStory gibt Ihnen eine Blaupause, mit der Sie Daten anhand einer überzeugenden, packenden Geschichte vermitteln. Auf 224 ansprechend designten Seiten geht e nicht um „schöne Folien“. Es geht darum zu wissen, wem Sie auf welche Art die richtige Menge Information vermitteln möchten. Mir haben die klaren Grafiken sowie die vielen Praxisbeispiele sehr gut gefallen. Das Kapitel „Bring clarity through Story Structure“ fand ich am hilfreichsten. Sätze, die mir sehr gut gefallen haben: - Storytelling makes the brain light up in a way no other form of communication does. - The foundation of effective communication is empathy. - "This is true if…" In einer Welt, in der viele Präsentationen reine Zeitverschwendung sind, ist dieses Buch eine willkommene Hilfe für alle, die Daten packend präsentieren möchten.
