This session will feature demos on how to take advantage of Tableau's built-in features to spruce up the look and feel of dashboards, and share some resources available on-line to help you achieve your objectives. It will present simple yet effective design tips that can help communicate the message behind your visualizations, using best practices developed at ExxonMobil. The message you wish to share with your visualization is better understood if you use the right colors, font-face, positioning and graphics. While developing dashboards, many tend to spend more time on content and mechanics, and very little time when it comes to aesthetics. By not applying design considerations, you run the risk of not telling the story that's important to your audience, and this could impact adoption of the tool. By following the simple tips presented in this session, you can be even more successful when presenting and sharing your visualizations.
