About this episode

Cole Nussbaumer Knaflic and Mike Cisneros discuss how to effectively aggregate data in charts by focusing on audience needs and decision-making.

When it comes to aggregating your data in your charts, it's hard to know what's overkill and what your reader actually needs. Cole Nussbaumer Knaflic and Mike Cisneros have an interesting approach where they want you to start with thinking about your audience and what decisions they need to make based on the chart, and anchor yourself there first. Then the design decisions become easier after that. It's a really practical chat, so I hope you enjoy it. Let's get to the show! Show notes: https://dataviztoday.com/shownotes/100
