How to Present Dashboards the Right Way

The wrong way to present a dashboard is by describing features. In this video I demonstrate the right way: talking about the benefits for the end users and walking them through relevant examples.

About Me:
I’m Christopher Chin, and I help tech professionals become confident speakers and leaders.
Does this sound familiar:
- You put together slide decks but your audience doesn’t react well to them?
- You’re great at researching, coding, and analyzing. But don’t know where to start with speaking up in meetings and giving presentations?
- You’ve been stuck in your career, unable to get the promotions you deserve, because your managers say you need to work on communication skills?
The truth is communication, presentation, and storytelling are not “soft skills”. They are extremely hard to master yet crucial for success in business and leadership.
I created this TH-cam channel and my Hidden Speaker training programs to address exactly those challenges. This is not just any communication course. This is communication for tech professionals by a tech professional. If you're looking for self-paced content to overcome anxiety, speak with confidence, and know how to structure a killer presentation, you’ve come to the right place.

I'm going to show you the good way and the bad way to present a dashboard. Let's start with the bad way. "We implemented some new features in our dashboard. At the top right there's a toggle between Global and United States and in the middle now we have two filters - cumulative, new, and positive cases/deaths." Think about how that compares to what I'm going to show you next. "We implemented some new features in our dashboard. Let's say you're a health official in New York City. You want to see the exact number of new positive cases. To do that you start at the top right and switch from Global to United States, and in these three filters in the middle switch them from cumulative to new, deaths to positive cases, and finally enter the state of interest which is New York." Remember, don't tell the audience what you did. Show them a concrete example so they can understand its impact

I hate telling these 'leadership' people how to operate a dashboard while they get paid twice what I'm getting.

[@TheHiddenSpeaker]

That’s fair. I’ve presented dashboards to people that made probably three times my salary. I think of it this way: while we might not make as much as leadership, we’re helping them make business decisions that often affect the health of the entire company. They make the amounts they do because of that primary responsibility, and it is our secondary responsibility to guide them in making those decisions
