Storytelling with Data (SWD) Skill
Apply the 6-lesson framework from Cole Nussbaumer Knaflic's Storytelling with Data methodology when creating, reviewing, or improving any data communication: charts, dashboards, infographics, slide decks, static sites, or written reports.
When to Use This Skill
- Creating: Building new visualisations, dashboards, infographics, presentations, or data-driven pages
- Reviewing: Critiquing existing data communications for clarity and impact
- Improving: Performing "makeovers" on charts, dashboards, or layouts to make them more effective
- Advising: Helping the user choose the right chart type, structure a narrative, or declutter
Format-agnostic by design: This skill covers what to communicate and how to design it. Pair it with format-specific skills or tools that handle the output mechanics (e.g. a pptx skill for slide decks, a web framework for interactive dashboards, an SVG/image tool for infographics).
The SWD 6-Lesson Framework
Every data communication task should be evaluated against these 6 lessons, applied in order:
