Hi Ramnarayanan - Firstly, on the first go no dashboard will turn out to be a great dashboard :-) , it is an iterative process but the below steps should help you for a good start (well begun is half done :-) ) 1. Understanding the business problem statement and associated KPI's 2. Audience who will be using the dashboard 3. Clean and Crisp is the key for any dashboard. Try to keep 6-8 charts on a dashboard with proper formatting 4. Build a mock dahsboard and get it reviewed and then proceed to build actual dashboard 5. Always try to have a flow in the dahsboard just sit back and see is the dashboard making a story and is it self explanatory 6. Choosing right colors and font sizes so that it would be appealing Hope this helps!! Dont' hesistate to reachout for further enquiries or online Training. Thanks Chaitanya read less

Building a great Tableau dashboard is like making a data story report! Here are some tips: Know your goal: What do you want people to learn from your data story? Keep it simple: Don't overwhelm them with too much data or charts. Focus on the key points. Pick the right pictures: Use charts that make sense for your data, like bar charts for comparing things. Clean design: Make it look nice and organized, like a presentation with consistent colors and fonts. Don't forget some breathing room! Let them explore: Add filters and tools so people can click around and learn more on their own. Think about who will see it: If it's for beginners, use clear labels. Test and improve: Show it to others and see if they understand your data story. Make changes based on their feedback. Remember, a great dashboard is like a clear and engaging data story that leaves an impression! read less
