What do you need to execute? 
✤ Where does your expertise lie? 
✤ Who can help you find, tell and sell your story? 
✤ Cost/Benefit - how much time for how much impact? 
✤ What are you going to stop doing? 
……………..………now, where’s that story?!
What’s the story? 
Can you summarise it in one simple sentence? 
Who’s interested - do you really know your audience? 
Can it create an emotional connection/engagement? 
Who’s the story about, who are the characters? 
Why, how - can the data tell us even more?
What’s the story? 
Who’s best/worst? 
What’s changed? Why? 
Are you stretching the truth Mr/Mrs Representative? 
Have you kept your promise? Is your plan working? 
Look at the difference, depending where you live/work 
Why is the data incomplete/missing? 
What human effect is the data having, reactions? 
Relationships - why does this go up and that go down? 
What’s going up/what’s going down? 
Ref: Paul Bradshaw, Data Journalism Heist 2013
It’s too complicated! 
We work with data every day 
Keep it simple, stay focused on one or two data sets 
Don’t forget the journalism 
Data is just one source - where’s your second?
What next? 
Increasing use of video, particularly on mobile 
Increasing use of data animation 
Much better personalisation 
The internet of things
Asanteni!
