Self-service reports, relevant dashboards, and other tools and techniques can help. But they're only the beginning.

Drawing on years as a pioneer in the field, Judah Phillips covers the business management, process, technical, and analytical work required to tell accurate "data stories" that answer crucial business questions, leading to more informed and better decision-making, increased revenue, and higher profits.
