Most important data analyst skill

Technical skills don't matter without storytelling.

You won't get hired as a data analyst without it.

Here is the simple reason why:

Without the story, nobody cares about the data.

- Most of your competition isn’t good at it so you can easily stand out.
- Business decisions can’t be made without it.
- You won’t get far in analytics without it

You can’t be a good data analyst without the ability to tell a good story.

You are the bridge between the data and your stakeholders.

So, you need to tell a story to drive the actual data-driven decisions.

How will you improve your storytelling skills today?
