Data Stories need to be accurate, authentic and representative, and to be effective need to reach those who truly need to hear them.

[Paul Hodge @DataVizGuy]

Data Storytelling needs to be embedded in the culture of organizations and used by all staff, not just the communications team. This means teaching people how to find and use meaningful data in their field, and craft it into messages and compelling stories that elicit action.

“No numbers without stories, and no stories without numbers." - David Devlin Foltz of the Aspen Institute

[Paul Hodge @DataVizGuy]

Data Storytelling that combines emotions and acts, human narrative and numbers in compelling ways is key to engage audiences, trigger connections and inspire action.

[Paul Hodge @DataVizGuy]

Understanding the audience, especially decision-makers, is key to effective communication. Credible, authentic Data champions who can speak with the ability to shape opinions, convene diverse partners and mobilize action are vital to success.

[Paul Hodge @DataVizGuy]

Data Storytelling should promote dignity, security, resilience and well-being. Losing loved ones, experiencing horrifying brutalities are deeply personal experiences. Respecting their grief and loss while capturing the testimonies of people to voice their struggles is critical
