Many Data professionals are eager problem solvers.
Too eager, sometimes.
They dive in without grasping the business problem.
The result?
Little value.
Here are 3 tips for impactful data work:
🔍 1) Ask good questions
Try to understand the business goal. What are they trying to achieve?
🚫 2) Learn to push back and say no
Become a consultant, not just an executor. Saying no is hard. But in the long run, stakeholders appreciate that you only work on impactful projects.
🤑 3) Communicate value
Don't explain HOW you've built your dashboard or model. Instead, speak about WHY it's relevant to your audience.
