Challenge #1: Eat, sleep, learn, repeat.
This brings us to the first of three challenges: Recalling everything covered over nineteen modules, even for an intelligent guy like Joe, is a challenge. Because let's face it, it takes repeated exposure, over and over again, to cement learning.
With seven years of experience in the finance department, Joe's team can count on him to deliver the quarterly expense report. Provided, the data lands in an Excel from a colleague who 'gets that stuff.'
Challenge #2: Complimentary Skills
This brings us to the second challenge—namely, the associated skills required to work with data. You see, data modelling is all new to Joe. Yes, training covers the different types of joins in Tableau. Applying the correct type, however, depends on the specific use case. Nailing this is crucial to producing accurate and reliable analysis.
Challenge #3: Confidence is Crucial
The third hurdle is more subtle yet no less important. And that is confidence. Attempting a different approach, having used a tried and tested method, requires patience and persistence to overcome the inevitable hurdles. Having an experienced hand to guide learners can be the difference between a failure to see a ROI and enablement within the wider organisation.
