Wow, es ist noch gar nicht lange her, seit mein Buch Datenvisualisierung mit Tableau veröffentlicht wurde! Ich danke allen Lesern für die vielen postiven Rückmeldungen und freue mich, dass mein Buch Ihnen hilft Erkenntinsse aus Ihren Daten abzuleiten und diese im Unternehmen zu teilen.
Die erste Auflage des Tableau-Buchs ist nun auch schon fast ausverkauft. Daher stellt sich jetzt die Frage, ob es einen Nachdruck geben wird, oder ob es bereits Potential für eine erweiterte zweite Auflage des Tableau-Buchs gibt. Um das zu entscheiden, freue mich auf Ihr Feedback!
Teilt eure Ideen, Anregungen und Änderungsvorschläge für die zweite Auflage des #Tableau-Buchs! Gerne per Email oder als Reply zu diesem Tweet.https://t.co/T5JlRq5qbh

Today, data is at the core of everything we do, but the journey to mastering it can be overwhelming. Last year I started lecturing a Data Analytics course at university (as part of an MBA program). In the meanwhile, I was refining the list of books that I highly recommend to read. Three of these books form the Data Journey!
The Data Journey: A Human-Focused Approach to Data Storytelling
The Data Journey is not just about numbers; it’s about understanding the evolution of data, the power of visualization, and how it all connects to real-world business. Here are the books that will guide you on this path:
1. Info We Trust: How to Inspire the World with Data
Begin your Data Journey with a deep dive into data storytelling. Info We Trust explores data lifecycle across disciplines, with inspiring references and hand-drawn illustrations. It’s a must-read for anyone serious about data communication.
This book examines all parts of the data storytelling lifecycle across disciplines. The use of marginalia and hand-drawn illustrations give you both simple lessons to take away and insights into where to find out more. The book is full of magnificent references that inspire further reading.
2. Visual Analytics with Tableau
Ready for hands-on experience? My book, Visual Analytics with Tableau, provides a step-by-step guide to mastering Tableau, from basic chart creation to advanced statistical modeling. With Tableau available for free to students, there’s no reason not to dive in!
Visual Analytics with Tableau covers everything you need to get started with Tableau (students get Tableau for free!). The book guides you from the first steps of connecting to data, creating different types of charts, and adding calculation fields to more advanced features such as table calculations, forecasts, and clusters, as well as R, Python, and MATLAB integration for sophisticated statistical modeling.
3. The Big Book of Dashboards: Visualizing Your Data Using Real-World Business Scenarios
Back to business (as this course is designed for an MBA program). We close our Data Journey canon with The Big Book of Dashboards. This is a comprehensive reference book with real-world solutions for business dashboards and a detailed analysis of do’s and don’ts.
This comprehensive reference book offers real-world solutions for business dashboards. It’s a practical guide to understanding do’s and don’ts in data visualization, categorized by industry and functional business areas.
