“However, you intend to use it, and whatever outcomes you wish to achieve, this book will allow you to get to grips with Tableau and, more importantly, the art of making any digital data more effective. In this book is advice regarding the linear tasks of data access and processing, moving toward the extremely non-linear process of problem solving and how to communicate data effectively with others.”

David Sigerson

“Mastering Tableau 2023 is such a comprehensive book for learning Tableau from A to Z. It covers a wide range of content from the basics of Tableau functionalities […] to more advanced concepts. I also like that the book covers extensively how to improve dashboard performance and data governance, topics that not many Tableau books mention. I would highly recommend this book to everyone. I am sure we can all learn from this book regardless of where we are in our Tableau journey.”
