Program Overview

Every team has data; very few have stories. This program teaches the craft of data storytelling—how to find the narrative hidden in your numbers, choose the right chart for the point you are making, and design visuals that are clear, honest, and memorable, even for audiences who never touch a spreadsheet.

What It Covers

Finding the Story

Interrogating a dataset for its narrative—what changed, what surprises, and what your audience actually needs to know.

Choosing the Right Chart

Matching chart types to the message—and knowing when a table, a single number, or no chart at all works better.

Design for Clarity

Colour, typography, annotation, and layout principles that make visuals clear and memorable instead of decorative.

Presenting Data

Walking non-technical audiences through data—framing insights, handling questions, and driving decisions.
