What do you think people you work with just don’t get about the data visualization work that you do?
Data Viz is more about visual communication and not creating one Dashboard or SAC Story after another . And you should apply best practices or standards .

It takes a lot of time to clean the data and get it in the right format for analysis and visualization. Example: Check all that apply items are a relatively "friendly" format for survey respondents, but really need to be converted to a long (vs. wide) format for analysis and visualization.

What do you think people you work with just don’t get about the data visualization work that you do?
Once they see my work, their mind is changed. But before they see my visualizations/dashboards, I find that people typically like to see every single number broken out every single way (usually in an Excel spreadsheet/table format). I swim hard against the stream to show others how much time they can save when those numbers are represented visually. All I need is to get them to sit down and view one of my dashboards and their opinions are typically swayed.

There is more to making a good graphic than using a one stop shop tool like PowerBI and Tableau.

My visualization work involves a lot of programming, data analysis, statistics,art and design choices to make good visualizations which some of these tools don’t provide especially for custom dashboards and tools

How labor and thought intensive it is to "just make a chart" or "just make a map". There are dozens if not hundreds of decisions that have to be made and people just think "poof" there's a map! Also, people think that data just exists. They have no idea that oftentimes the data they want doesn't actually exist, or it does but you have to pay for it, or it does but it's not in a format that's easy to use.

That data is used for decision making. Not just to judge their performance; data is true whether or not it is reported, but only by analyzing it can we use it

What do you think people you work with just don’t get about the data visualization work that you do?
I think people don’t respect the amount of time that goes into creating good visualizations but they appreciate it when they see it. It may also be viewed as something that is more of an art than a science and not something that money for training should be spent on.

What do you think people you work with just don’t get about the data visualization work that you do?
It's much more than just pretty charts. It's not just about how it looks. Although looking polished and professional is an impactful part of it, the prep work, asking good questions, data cleaning and modelling, defining the appropriate metrics, and all the micro decisions that go into why a data point is represented the way it is, are all much more relevant and often overlooked or not even considered. Also, a tool doesn't do successful data viz. It is the skill of the person using the tool. Any tool is good if it's fit for purpose and well handled by the person using it. These points are really difficult to get across, as tool vendors focus too much on features and too little on what actually makes the tool successful when used.
