Women in Dataviz Autumn 2024 Newsletter
It's fall, which means pumpkin spice everything, back-to-school, crisp morning weather, Halloween, and, of course, Tableau’s Iron Viz Qualifier! The qualifier round topic hasn't been announced yet as of now, but Jennifer Dawes’ excellent blog post Reflecting on My Tableau Iron Viz Journey: Lessons Learned and New Directions got me started thinking about it.
If a sports dataviz contest is more to your liking, Cleartelligence is sponsoring Chart Champ again this year. (Entries can be in Tableau, Power BI, or Qlik.)
Having spent the last six consecutive fall seasons in Tampa, I am especially excited to be in Delaware this year! I am looking forward to some beautiful displays of colorful leaves by the many trees in the neighborhood. (Ask me again about my excitement when the temperature dips below 50 degrees F.)
I hope to see you Thursday for our first Women in Dataviz Coffee Break of the season!
