Numbers speak to our head. Stories speak to our hearts. When data tells a true and compelling story, we bring heart and head together in order to create action.

I had an epiphany at a recent conference and wanted to share my thoughts. I've always looked at #dataanalysis as craft and what we teach as tradecraft rather than technology training. Hopefully this helps clarify what we mean. Interested in your thoughts.

Great article on this important effort. Looking at the analytics challenge, I put together this piece mapping out the data work. Thinking with Data: An Example from Flagstaff linkedin.com/pulse/thinking-… via @LinkedIn

Two fully electric buses will be operating on the streets of Flagstaff by mid-April, Mountain Line officials say. The switch to electric buses is expected to cut local emissions by 68 percent when complete. govtech.com/fs/flagstaff-ari…

Well after 8 months off, I'm finally dusting myself off and feeling ready to re-enter the real world 😆. I'd love to hear if you are working on interesting things and think I would be a good addition! My DMs are open, best to reach me there 📭

Really amazing story about what a culture shift in #localgov can do for a city, it's residents, and the businesses they depend on. I have to think the #publicsector workers win too when they have a job they can feel good doing

The first rule of building a horrible #localgov website is to ignore all the people telling you how you should make it better austinchronicle.com/news/202… via @austinchronicle

The data we spend so much money collecting and storing is useless if we don't first #startwithwhy. Why do we need it? Why is data important to our mission and values?

Sometimes @mikeloukides and I chat about the world. This time, we wrote it down.
Please enjoy our take on how the pandemic is changing people's day-to-day lives and business activities:

Interesting look at the attempts to understand why some cities thrive and others don't. My takeaway: there's no magic bullet but a concerted effort on all fronts to fight decay and despair in all its forms

So glad to have a collaborator to help make good ideas even better and encourage the flow of words to describe them.

Inspired by this @WarInstitute article on nighttime fighting, @rdunks1 ( @datapolitan ) and I saw some parallels to companies trying to employ ML/AI:

Great website @wprdc, but you have a broken link on your people page wprdc.org/people/. The "Members of the Advisory Board" link tries to go to a localhost address rather than the web address.
