Your reflection on using Tableau and comparing it with Power BI is insightful and highlights the practical challenges and benefits of learning a new tool. Your experience underscores how Tableau’s simplicity can be advantageous for beginners, while Power BI’s more advanced functionalities may suit more complex needs. I found your discussion on visualizing trends, such as burnout levels, particularly compelling—how do you think better visual storytelling could influence decision-making in such scenarios? Also, what strategies might you adopt to improve clarity and visual appeal in future assignments, particularly with aspects like color schemes?
Review the visuals posted by your peers and provide your feedback by answering the following questions:
- Are the visuals complete and accurate, representing all required analyses? Explain.
- Are their visuals the same as yours? If not, speculate on why there could be differences when you worked with the same data.
Review the executive summaries posted, and answer the following questions:
- Are the executive summaries clear, concise, and complete? Identify at least one strength and one area for improvement for each summary.
- Do you agree with the findings and recommendations in the summaries? Why or why not?
How does your experience with data analysis and working with Tableau compare with that of your peers? Share some tips or pointers that helped you work on your assignment or may help address some challenges your peers faced.

Working with Tableau was an eye opener for me as I realized how much easier is was to create graphics representations based on chosen categories. The drag and drop data categories made it a breeze to include or remove data and see differences on the fly. Tableau is truly the next level of data manipulation and dashboarding I have used so far. If all possible, I will try to get my superiors at work to allow me a license to start employing tableau. I certainly hope we have more Tableau assignments during this course as I look forward to learn some more. THE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AP IS ATTTACHED.

Do you have any prior experience with data analysis or visualization? I have some experience with data analysis. Excel worksheets were used to create the data analysis reports. This was my first time working in Tableau creating visuals. I did struggle a bit simply because I was not familiar with how Tableau worked. I was persistant and figured it out.
I feel my visuals were pretty good, especially since it was my first time using Tableau. I don't think I would change any aspect of the visuals. The charts answer the questions that were asked and color coded the results. i had to go back to see what feedback I had received. The feedback was I had done an excellent job. I was shocked, but extremely happy that the assignment went better than I thought. My visuals from Tableau and executive summary are combined on the file below. 4.2 Executive summary is the file below

Executive Summary
Purpose and respondents:
The purpose of the executive summary is to provide an overview and better insight into the current overworked issue that is prevalent amongst company employees. Based on employee feedback, the organizations leadership can make strategic medication to resource allocation so to alleviate current employee morale. The respondent data set is composed of male and female employees of all age groups, with tenure ranging from one to five years, and different leadership levels.
Results:
Based on the graph results in question one and what gender group responded the most with “Pretty wiped out almost every day”, the male group has the highest result. (See Graph on Question one)
In Question two, Male age group over fifty (50+) were found to be the most stressed at home due to work. (See Graph on Question two)
In Question number three, Managers were amongst the group that seemed to love their job and what they do most. (See Graph on Question Three)
In Question four, female with tenures spanning past five years (5+) found that they have energy to spare and feel great.
Recommendations:
Based on the results stemming from the question mentioned previously it is apparent that results vary from one group to another depending on data keys asked. Also, no common denominator was evident based on the results from the four questions except that all age groups, genders, and leadership level experience a certain level of stress and burnout from work activities. Recommendations are to create a social platform for company employees so they can share their experiences and promote employee spotlights for performance.

The purpose of an executive summary is to provide an overview of the document, and it should contain its main points. The survey answers consisted of executives, managers, directors and individual contributors.
The two areas that the company can focus on to reduce employee burnout are work life balance and practicing stress management techniques. There seems to be a communication gap as well. Employees should have a work life balance to recover from stress. It may be taking an afternoon off, switching to a different type of work or project, or lowering quotes for a week or two to provide some breathing space. It’s important to pay attention to the overall health, well-being, and stress levels of the team so you can be proactive in adjusting workloads, timelines, and expectations. Focus on building a work environment that encourages transparency and honesty. Some employees may not want to talk about their circumstances outside of work but make it an option for them. Let the team members know they can turn to you to discuss what they are dealing with outside of their job.
Practicing stress management techniques is essential to keep stress under control. Try breathing techniques, short walks to get away from their desk, controlling your emotions, time management to keep from getting stressed. Set some boundaries so you can stay on track and say no so team members do not get overwhelmed. Deep breathing or aromatherapy are good stress relievers as well. Schedule breaks for the team so they can declutter their minds. Focus on positive thinking and try to get some exercise.
