Every day, we create 2.5 quintillion bytes of data — so much that 90% of the data in the world today has been created in the last two years alone.
"The ability to take data - to be able to understand it, to process it, to extract value from it, to visualize it, to communicate it - that's going to be a hugely important skill in the next decades“ ~ Hal Varian, Google's chief economist

Data visualization is a multi-disciplinary recipe of art, science, math and technology.
![Page 4: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Data Visualization is the visual display of measurable quantities using• Points, Lines & Curves• A co-ordinate system• Numbers• Shading• Color• Symbols
to serve a clear purpose• to understand data• to substantiate a hypothesis• to discover from data
![Page 5: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Types of data visualization• Explanatory: Based around a specific and focused narrative
• Exploratory: Aim to create a tool for user to discover
• An exhibition of self expression. Ornamentation of data as art
![Page 6: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Steps for effective business data visualization• Know your audience and their need for visualization
• Choose the right visualization type and style
• Explore ways of enhancing it
![Page 7: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Know your audience• What role is this information for? C-level, Analysts, Operational guys
• What department does he belong to? Sales, marketing etc.
• What metric will help him achieve his goals?
![Page 8: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Abstraction of data by role• C-level: Use information to keep track of health of business. Need strategic and high level view with focus on long term and macro data. Simple summary and indicators suffice, and they do not need real-time data.
• Analyst: Focus on getting value out of data. Need query driven analysis, detailed data with precision, and focus on trends and co-relations.
• Operational guys: To complete task in hand. Need information to focus on current status, issue & event driven (alerts, spikes, trouble). Real-time data here is useful.
![Page 9: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Data required by department• Sales: Leads, conversions, Average value per sale, Closure time
• Marketing: Visits, Acquisitions, CPC, CPM, Awareness
• Network & IT: Issues, tickets, lead time, open cases, downtime
• HR: Attrition rate, interview closure rates and time
• Customer Support: Number of tickets, turnaround time, satisfaction rating
![Page 10: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Role + department + goal derives metric• In each department, the data to be viewed changes by role
• In customer support:• Support Executive sees his number of tickets, his turnaround
time etc.• Head of customer support sees total tickets by department or
by issue type, and turnaround time• CEO sees customer satisfaction index
• In sales:• Sales associate see their number of leads, target allotted, and
target covered• Sales Team Heads see number of leads for team, conversion
ratio, closure rates, turnaround time, leaderboard• VP, Sales sees pipeline of all team members, revenue by
teams, geographical distribution of revenue, channel distribution
• CEO sees projected revenue vs actual revenue
![Page 11: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
When deciding what metric to visualize…• Ensure that metric helps drive a business goal. Avoid vanity
metrics
• Use simple metrics that everyone can understand, and act on
• Just because you've some data doesn't mean you've to use it all
![Page 12: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
7-step framework for business metrics1. Define company goals – short term (6-12 months) & long term
(36 months)2. What are the measures to determine if you have met your goals?
(Financial and Non-financial key result indicators)3. What activities should you undertake to reach the goals?4. From all the activities that you could undertake, now select the
20% of activities that have the biggest impact on your goals.5. Who is responsible for seeing that top 20% activities are carried
out?6. How are you going to measure if your most important activities
are being carried out correctly?7. Of all your indicators (Key result and Key performance) that are
listed above determine which ones:a) Are already being measured / reportedb) Can be measured (data is available)c) Can not yet be measured (data not available)

Now that you know your audience, data and goals, let’s visualize…
![Page 14: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
A good visualization would…• Harness the powerful visual function of the human brain
• Be tailored to the medium of delivery and skill-set of audience
• Use a design choice supports the comprehension of the data, and increases data-ink ratio
![Page 15: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Our visual function in the brain is extremely fast compared to the cognitive function.
80% of the brain is dedicated to visual processing.
![Page 16: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Maximizing pre-attentive processing• Visualizations are rendered in 3 dimensions – x, y and z
• Use the z-axis to maximize pre-attentive processing by changing the color, size, shape or shading of the object
![Page 17: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The world is not full of statisticians. Many of us would like a quick glance just to get a good idea of
something.

Innumerable types of visualizations are possible. As simple or as complex as you want them.
![Page 20: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Communicate more than data to user. Do not leave the processing to user.
The worst visualizations make you think more than looking at a raw data table itself.

Arranging data in order makes it easy
![Page 25: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Cut down distractions
![Page 26: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Use dotted lines for projections
![Page 27: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
And effective annotations to highlight/segregate
![Page 28: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Use interactive features to increase data-ink ratio
![Page 29: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Use drill-downs for detailed data, and communicate such interactivity to user
![Page 30: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Enhance tabular data with colors and shapes

For data with 3 related dimensions, use bubble or heatmap charts
![Page 32: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Compact charts can condense a lot of info
![Page 33: Data Visualization for Business - Pallav Nadhani](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54c7ab924a7959d4368b456d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Aim to provide unified experience across devices
On a PC/Mac On iPhone
