I had some thoughts about "navigating change" recently. Those apply to any kind of personal or professional change but I'd really like for people who have been in the.@tableau.ecosystem for a while to give it a read and let me know what they think.

You can now also just drag and drop an image file (or your preferences.tps file) into the tool to get the colours extracted to use them in your visualisations. No need to use Figma, the tools is also still available on my website:

I just booked a refundable room for less than 200$/night and I know it's a quality place. If you want to be able to go to #data25, start planning early at very little risk with refundable rates! .More tips here: Or just ask me!.
