This week, we have a special episode of Podcast Your Data! from across the pond! InterWorks U.K.’s Sian Davies hosts Tech Talent Charter CEO Debbie Forster. As a member of the British Empire and one of the “20 Most Influential Women in U.K. IT” since...
In part one of this series, I laid out a pretty grim reality for many organizations seeking to gain insight from data science. For this post, I will spend more time talking about the exciting possibilities that can be accomplished with data science rather than...
Every once in a while, I wake up in the middle of the night and don’t feel like reading a book. This happened a few weeks ago and I started thinking about business information and the alphabet. I decided to try to come up with a...
(Note: This post is an expanded version of an article I originally posted on the Tableau Community Forums prior to joining InterWorks.) Tableau has the awesome capability to build bins and instantly create histograms, but it comes with a couple limitations. First, bins are not available...
What is the most valuable commodity for your finance team? You might say people. Well, let's assume you have the right people, with the right skills, in the right jobs. After that, what would be your answer? My answer would be time. Time is a scarce resource in...
Welcome back! Today we're going to trace my steps through the first few weeks of the Machine Learning Nanodegree program. If you missed the first post, check it out! So far, I'm feeling good about my experience and I'm excited to share what I've learned...
Like most people here at InterWorks, I really love data. I’ve been collecting data about different aspects of my life for a long time. Several years ago, I discovered Automatic - a little device that plugs into your car’s on-board diagnostics port and logs data about...
Has everyone recovered from the 2017 Tableau Conference? We sure haven’t! From the keynotes, Data Night Out and all the informative sessions, we are still riding high from Vegas. There were so many exciting announcements to come out of TC17, it’s hard to narrow down...
During a recent project, I received an interesting question: “Can we swap what dimension is displayed in a stacked bar chart based on a filter being applied?” I’ve decided it would be easier for me to answer this question by showing you how to do it with the...
Washington, D.C. is packed with incredible places to visit. As someone who didn’t grow up near the U.S. capital, I am constantly amazed during each visit by the access to museums, culture and history I could only read about while growing up in Colorado. The trouble with...
Today, we've got a special political edition of Podcast Your Data! InterWorks' Michael Treadwell discusses data analytics in local government with Oliver Wise. As the Director of Performance and Accountability in New Orleans, Oliver is all about using data in a positive way to impact...
One of my least favorite phrases currently being used in the analytics world is “data science.” This is ironic since “data science” is in my official InterWorks job title. But every time I hear the phrase, I get a little knot in my stomach similar to...
Tableau isn't just a useful tool for visualising and analysing data. There's no doubt it has enabled me to improve and optimise my team, but there's another benefit I did not initially appreciate when I first began using Tableau. Coming from the world of Excel,...
Table calculations are one of the hardest functions to understand in Tableau Desktop. A lot of us are guilty of clicking through every single option on the table calculation window until we find something that looks right. There is a lot of great material out...
I finally cracked and decided to shove everything in my personal life aside for the next few months to take on Udacity’s Machine Learning Nanodegree Program. Goodbye video games and ice-cold beer! On second thought, beer, you should stay. I might require a cheerleader. Jokes aside, I’ve had my...
While teaching a Desktop I and II Accelerated class last week in Perth, I got an interesting question from a Tableau student named Clint. "Can you make a highlight dynamic so that it will highlight just the top 10 or top 20?" When it comes to Tableau, the...
Returning to Podcast Your Data! this week is Alberto Cairo! You may remember him from one of our very first podcasts over a year ago. As the Knight Chair of Visual Journalism at the University of Miami, he has in-depth experience with the state of...
The 2017 Tableau Conference is in full swing and we’re not quite sure where September went. Last month was packed with busy schedules, task lists and meetings. And our blog was no different. Our consultants churned out Tableau tips and vizzes as if they were excited about...
This week’s PYD! is extra special as we have not one, but two Zen Masters! Okay, one current and one former, but still! InterWorks’ Dan Murray chats with Piedmont Healthcare’s Director of Business Intelligence, Mark Jackson. They’re long-time acquaintances and jump right into the data talk!...
If you've been living under a virtual rock over the past month, you may not be aware that the 2017 Tableau Conference is approaching fast! This year’s conference promises to be bigger and more informative than ever before. With last year’s attendance at 12,000, we can only...
