💡 One of my methodologies to learn #dataviz is to share. Sharing is caring. When I'm sharing, I need to care about my content and make sure it's not misleading – @MikaelDewabrata  #Outlier2024

💡 Great data journalism transcends mere facts. Journalists know that it must resonate on a human level to connect readers and viewers to their own lives, while educating them to truths that are often hidden and sometimes in plain sight. – @maudlynei

💡 We need to be careful not to reduce a customer profile down to a single trait…we can create a more inclusive profile by bridging the gap between natural biases (lived experiences, societal norms) and inclusive contexts (mindset, needs, roles) – Lisa Vissichelli
