 l tools that tell stories through data and generate actionable insights tha
 t help an organization achieve its goals. However, building a dashboard doe
 s not guarantee its adoption. Roughly 25% of employees actively use BI/Anal
 ytics tools, and this number has not gone up much in the last 7-8 years, ev
 en though 50% of data and analytics leaders say BI/Analytics usage has incr
 eased by a lot.\n\nThere are many reasons why the adoption rate stays so lo
 w &ndash; Misaligned Metrics, Bad Visuals, Overwhelming Pages, Slow Changin
 g data, Lack of Training, etc. A great dashboard requires strategic plannin
 g and design thinking. Knowing your audience helps you determine what KPIs/
 data you need;&nbsp;knowing what story you want to tell helps you identify 
 which visualization type to use.&nbsp;An effective design helps you tell a 
 compelling story and leads to better adoption.\n\nIn this session, we will 
 cover three&nbsp;key areas of creating an effective Dashboard:\n\n
 What kind of Dashboard do I need &ndash; Operational, Analytical, Strategic
 , or Ad-hoc?\n	What visualization(s) should I use to convey the message?\n
 How should I design the layout of the dashboard so it&#39;s easy to follow?
