Reflection – Visualization

Challenge     Visualization is the most powerful tool for me to deal with conceptual things or any  other framework that hard to explain. My job is about deliver the best experience for  customer focusing on people, changing and leaning complicate process or procedure to  facIlitate their working model. Most of my work wasting time to explain what I think, so  my challenge is to find way to let others understand easily.     Selection    Visualization is the tool that translates wording to visual. We might not have enough  time to present to leaders with a tons of words, but if we show them by visual it will  shorten time for understanding what I trying to deliver. So I decide to use visualization  to change the way of work.     Application    Since I worked here for 6 months, I found a lot of data presented by power point. Most  of data came from excel and full of content explain about framework and what they are  going to do, so I decided to change the way to present. I had a chance to present about  Expatriate Journey, so took time to understand the process and procedure of Expatriate  in each step of life cycle. Then turned them to a simple symbol with very short word. In  the same time, I try to think first with “What if” I change the way of presenting data?  “What is” the most presentation that leaders want to see? The answer is ..They don’t  have much time. They also want to see the end of the result, so it means that they want  to see the whole process in a very short time. “It’s basically anything that takes us  beyond just using words or language alone” as Angela Myer said. In each page of my  presentation didn’t have sentence more than 3-4 per page. There’re a lot of boxes with  like to each other to present the hold of the journey of Expatriate. So the leader can  take time with this slide just for 3-5 minutes to see the hold path of Expatriate Journey.    Insight     After using more visualization in presentation not only get a good feedback from  leaders, but also increase more understanding of each other. We see and go through  the same approach with really great support from them more easier. That’s make me  keep trying to using more visualization also in my team. I hope that to changing the way  to present will lead more trust and opened mind to what we going to do.

Approach    Finally, I know that visualization tool might not work in every approach. I should  combine with other tools and also other way of visualization. While I study this course I  also study about some visualization programs (Power BI, Qlik Sense). It quite a new  interesting tools for me to use with data I present.     Storytelling is also the tool that can go along with visualization, because visualization will  gain more attractive with telling step by step. This two tools will lead listener to think  about the story that you are trying to explain and they also have visual guideline from  visualization that you use. So it’s means that you can build both sense of sight and  sound.
