Good Charts

Visualization is a powerful form of communication that is able to effectively convey information and ideas. For a long time, data visualization was the domain of experts—data scientists and designers. However, new tools and vast amounts of data make it simple for anybody to create compelling visualizations that express concepts significantly more effectively than traditional spreadsheet charts. In addition, creating effective charts is increasingly becoming a necessary talent for managers. Many managers are already doing it if you arent, and theyre receiving acknowledgment and credit for contributing to your companys success. Scott Berinato presents a comprehensive overview of visualization and how to utilize it to impress and persuade others in his book Good Charts.
