Hi #datafam, if you love @settlersofcatan as much as I do, come check out the customisable board I made in Tableau! You can see the expected yield of each position! https://t.co/dPvue5MsgY via @tableaupublic #catan

We are getting into planning mode for TUGs & likely to collab with our peers across Australia & maybe even NZ. Are there any #datafam peeps keen to raise their profile in APAC? TUG talks are approx 20 mins long & aimed at the analyst population. Ping me for more info. DMs open

What exactly is the difference between a histogram and a bar chart? Alex clarifies in the #SWDblog article: https://t.co/Lh0wPlY4OO

[Pris Lam @pris_lam]

@Wafture_ I suppose if you sit on just a table top, you'll be forced to stand every now and then?

[Pris Lam @pris_lam]

Bought a sit stand desk for WFH months ago. It was finally delivered today and all I received was a table top... 😂😭

[Pris Lam @pris_lam]

@ltavernier7 @tableau @storywithdata Love this viz. I'm especially liking the keywords on the bottom left too!

"The difference between being a ‘good’ or a ‘great’ data visualiser lies in your soft skills."

Pris penned a guest #SWDblog post sharing insights from her non-traditional path into analytics & tips on breaking into the #dataviz field. Check it out!

Excited to be chosen for this month's member spotlight!

Got a question about getting into data viz? I'll be replying to #SWDcommunity questions over the month.

[Cole Knaflic @storywithdata]

This month, we shine our #SWDcommunity spotlight on @pris_lam. Pris completed EVERY #SWDchallenge in 2020, and, as a consultant at @DataSchoolAu, has a ton of tips to share. Get to know her & ask a question in the community conversation: https://t.co/6KqxhhTTef

Congrats, Pris!

A year ago @hesheissa and I set a goal to learn how to create visualizations using #d3js 🤩

We gathered all the resources we used into one place to help anyone who also wants to learn D3.js but has no coding background!

This semester I had the pleasure to teach data visualization studio at an elite US university. Many students were interested in social justice (being 2020 in the US). Yet, many approached the topic in a way that was a bit naive ... (thread🧵) /1

My client has an acronym chat bot! 😍 As a consulting analyst, this is my new favourite thing.

@nadirantsy I don't think more effort required is bad either or a deal breaker. Perhaps they have a massive list of other traits you wish in yourself. Plus you could still make sure the 4 other ppl are very self-driven to lift up your avg score too haha.

[Pris Lam @pris_lam]

@nadirantsy I'm sure you've heard, "we're the avg of the five ppl we spend the most time with". I don't think we necessarily become like these ppl but they can make it equally easier or more difficult to do build/break habits. The less your key values/goals align, the more effort required.

[Pris Lam @pris_lam]

@storywithdata Depending on the outcomes required from my session, one option is to split them into discussion groups based on their profile and give them specific guiding questions. When audiences are mixed, a way to fulfil diverse needs is to focus on facilitating community expertise.
