Data Visualization with Microsoft Power BI: How to Design Savvy Dashboards

From the Preface

Who This Book Is For

This practical book shows data analysts as well as professionals in finance, sales, and marketing how to quickly create visualizations and build savvy dashboards.

Managers and Nontechnical Professionals: For those who are new to Power BI, this book serves as an excellent introduction. It provides a clear understanding of how Power BI works through the lens of the final visual output. Particularly if you are familiar with PowerPoint presentations or Excel pivot tables, many features will feel intuitive.

If your company already has Power BI Report Server with ready-made data models, the knowledge presented in this book will be ample. It enables you to craft professional dashboards based on clear data.

Data Analysts: If you are involved in data engineering, primarily working with Power Query and DAX, this book will be a valuable addition to your skill set. We understand that the design aspect can be tricky for a true analyst, making it challenging to anticipate what the client wants. Therefore, each chapter is supplemented with examples and explanations of why a particular visualization suits a specific case.

You don’t have to memorize all the details; you can refer to the relevant chapter when necessary and cross-check the checklist to confirm whether all the configuration aspects for a particular chart have been addressed.

Editorial Reviews

Review

What a great book!

The content would suit a one or two day course very well. The inclusion of quizzes helps with this, as does the availability of a source dataset and of a finished pbix in each section.
It is refreshing to see a book like this that tackles such basic user requirements so well. Great coverage and solid advice.

If you want to get better in Power BI, this book will get you walking (and then running)! You'll learn not only how to use the tool but also how to create great graphs.

Well done team.
