This visualization was fun for me, most of all because it was straightforward and the data prep and cleanup wasn’t too bad. For this dataset, I had access to information across several accounts and departments within the organization I worked for. All identifying information has been redacted.

The trends start from the fiscal year’s start, July, on to the end of December. I’m still sussing out more that I can learn and play with as far as the dataset goes and how to manipulate it better, but so far I feel like I have a good few visualizations to present.

All of my vizzes should be available on my Tableau Public page. At least for right now. Ideally, I’d love to get everything I can out of these and then be able to create a PDF that highlights everything and the process and my findings with it.

Unfortunately, the more helpful context of each account/department is removed so I feel like the info is a little less impactful than it could be. If you have all the info about the dept’s, the accounts, etc, then you can say what needs more, what is acceptable, what isn’t, what do could be done to help in one way or the other.

I think overall what I wanted to show was that despite the organization returning a lot of their functions to the buildings they occupy– after having most of the staff work from home for the more dangerous parts of the pandemic– Zoom was still a huge part of daily functionality. That Zoom provided such a good enrichment despite things moving over to the buildings.

Zoom in general isn’t the main focus for me though, it was accessibility. Zoom was just the tool, being accessible is what we ended up wanting the most. Because in the end, the more options you have for people to join you other than just physical, in-person meetings, the more people and engagement you get overall.

I hope you enjoyed the breakdown of my work as much as I did writing and putting it together! My next post will come next week, and until then, may your data cleaning be swift and simple.
