In my role, I often build dashboards to help users extract insights from large datasets. The challenge isn’t collecting or analyzing data. I struggle with designing data-centric products that are clear and useful. Most PM resources focus on using data to drive decisions, not on dashboard UX or data storytelling. I’ve been doing this for a year and want to level up. Any good resources (ideally courses) on dashboard design, data storytelling, or similar? TIA!

Do some research on data visualization techniques and methods of expression. Dont forget, the visualization is still driving decisions, but is intended to speed the process, show the big changes (to’s and from’s), the early warning signs, based on the predictive models, etc. What is important vs what can be ignored. Dashboards that are static reports don’t drive much in terms of value. If they aren’t sensitive enough to do that, it’s not a dashboard as much as it is a status report with visuals. Ask your users. What do they need? What don’t they know but would like to. The visuals cane come from there (eg, I need to know if X changes by 5% or more, and then let me drill into the other data that shows me why).
