Tamás Andrási and Viktor Vajas gave a talk on Data Storytelling 2.0, where they explored the role of dashboard applications in making effective business decisions. They pointed out how visual data representation helps leaders quickly and efficiently analyze information.
Forum and Discussions
Following the presentations, participants engaged in a forum where they could ask questions to the speakers. Practical answers were provided regarding the areas where data analysis can be useful. It was noted that, like all innovations, adopting data-driven solutions often faces initial resistance within organizations.
Some employees fear job losses, while others may not immediately grasp its importance. A positive example highlighted involved a soon-to-be-retired employee who, after a few weeks of data analysis training, became enthusiastic enough to teach other team members.
The event concluded with a dinner, offering an opportunity for informal discussions about the challenges and opportunities ahead for businesses.
