Data Presentation
Two complementary skills for taking raw data to the audience: storytelling for the narrative arc, dashboards for the always-on view.

Core distinction
- Storytelling answers "what should this audience walk away believing?" — argument first, viz supports it.
- Dashboard answers "is the system healthy right now?" — metric set, layout, visual scan, drill paths.
Don't confuse the two. A dashboard is not a story; a story is not a dashboard. Pick the mode that matches the audience's need.
