Interview with Tricia Aanderud

What can you learn from Leonardo Da Vinci on how to put things into perspective?
Do you struggle with data communication?
How important is data visualization?

Storytelling is one of the great leadership skills that play a role in communication. Through stories, you can create alignment and you can influence others. It’s one piece of a puzzle to be an effective statistician.

In this episode, Benjamin and I speak with Tricia Aanderud, a very good data storyteller. Here’s what you can learn from the interview:

  • How to think about the story within the data
  • How to reveal your Aha moments
  • How to get into details while keeping the big picture
  • How to build tension and impact the visualization

Listen to this episode and share it with someone who might benefit from it as well!
