 Your reflection on using Tableau and comparing it with Power BI is insightful and highlights the practical challenges and benefits of learning a new tool. Your experience underscores how Tableau’s simplicity can be advantageous for beginners, while Power BI’s more advanced functionalities may suit more complex needs. I found your discussion on visualizing trends, such as burnout levels, particularly compelling—how do you think better visual storytelling could influence decision-making in such scenarios? Also, what strategies might you adopt to improve clarity and visual appeal in future assignments, particularly with aspects like color schemes? 

  Review the visuals posted by your peers and provide your feedback by answering the following questions: 

  1. Are the visuals complete and accurate, representing all required analyses? Explain.
  2. Are their visuals the same as yours? If not, speculate on why there could be differences when you worked with the same data.

Review the executive summaries posted, and answer the following questions:

  1. Are the executive summaries clear, concise, and complete? Identify at least one strength and one area for improvement for each summary.
  2. Do you agree with the findings and recommendations in the summaries? Why or why not?

How does your experience with data analysis and working with Tableau compare with that of your peers? Share some tips or pointers that helped you work on your assignment or may help address some challenges your peers faced.

Working with Tableau was an eye opener for me as I realized how much easier is was to create graphics representations based on chosen categories.  The drag and drop data categories made it a breeze to include or remove data and see differences on the fly.  Tableau is truly the next level of data manipulation and dashboarding I have used so far.  If all possible, I will try to get my superiors at work to allow me a license to start employing tableau.  I certainly hope we have more Tableau assignments during this course as I look forward to learn some more. THE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AP IS ATTTACHED.

Do you have any prior experience with data analysis or visualization?   I have some experience with data analysis.  Excel worksheets were used to create the data analysis reports.  This was my first time working in Tableau creating visuals.  I did struggle a bit simply because I was not familiar with how Tableau worked. I was persistant and figured it out. 

I feel my visuals were pretty good, especially since it was my first time using Tableau.  I don’t think I would change any aspect of the visuals.  The charts answer the questions that were asked and color coded the results. i had to go back to see what feedback I had received. The feedback was I had done an excellent job.  I was shocked, but extremely happy that the assignment went better than I thought.  My visuals from Tableau and executive summary are combined on the file below. 4.2 Executive summary is the file below
