Case Study 001. GCCS Dashboard: Step 5
Step 5 - Publish
I published the dashboard online using Tableau. Board members and school leaders could access their new dashboard on any computer or mobile device from anywhere in the world. Once the dashboard was in use, I noticed a big change in the way Board meetings were conducted—rather than using the meetings to gather information as they had before, now, since they had up-to-data information constantly available to them through the dashboard, every Board member arrived at the meeting already conversant in the data. The meetings went from an exercise in simply finding out what’s happening and turned into a forum to discuss why things are happening. Thanks to the dashboard, Board meetings were now more directly focused on finding solutions.
