Tableau Data Driven Talk - Indianapolis
This document summarizes a presentation about becoming data driven and using Tableau. It discusses the speaker's first successful Tableau project that led to rapid deployment of dashboards across multiple business functions. It also outlines keys to success with Tableau including training, starting quickly with a small project, and not doing what the boss asks if it is not the best solution. The presentation then demonstrates Tableau capabilities and discusses big data challenges around volume, velocity and variety of data as well as strategies for successful deployment based on company culture.
