    Say it with me: The data *cannot* speak for itself! 😊 What type of data do you typically present? Let me know below. 👇🏼

    TLDR: Tell the audience the reason for gathering the data. Then present the data. Then tell them the implications of your findings.

    This is fluff....the equivalent of a self-help book that uses lots of words but doesn't actually teach anything. If you want to learn something about presenting data, look up how McKinsey, BCG, and other major consultants create their presentations. There's tons of actual professionals on KZread that share their legitimate insight on how people who actually make money delivering high-end presentations. This video is ridiculous....almost insulting.

    hmm. a man mansplaining. Nobody forced you to watch and if you didn't like it, you could have just moved on. That's what real adults do.

    My university linked to this video as "required material" and within the first 30 seconds I'm wondering why. You summed it up pretty good. This is like a data explanation for elementary school kids.
