Mickey walks you through turning data into narratives that influence decisions, drive business outcomes, and inspire real organizational change.
You’ll hear why storytelling trumps spreadsheets, how to tailor your message for different leaders, and the three questions every dashboard should answer. If your dashboards don’t spark action, Mickey tells you why—and exactly what to do about it.
